Answer:
$ 74.23
Explanation:
We are given the following:
mean, μ = $ 104.50
standard deviation, σ = $ 23.62
Using the z-score table, we have
P(Z < z) = 10% (since we are evaluating lowest 10% of values)
hence P(Z < z) = 0.10
P(Z < -1.282 ) = 0.10
z = -1.282 (this evaluates to 0.1 on the z-score table)
Using z-score formula,
x = z *σ + μ
substituting the values,
x =- - 1.282 * 23.62 + 104.50
= 74.23
The most for the stock is $ 74.23
