Answer:

[tex]P(x \ge 45000) = 0.77935[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given [Missing from the question]

Exhibit Teacher's Salary:

[tex]\bar x=50000[/tex]

[tex]s = 6500[/tex]

Required

Calculate [tex]P(x\ge 45000)[/tex]

First, we calculate the z score

[tex]z = \frac{x - \bar x}{s}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{45000 - 50000}{6500}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{-5000}{6500}[/tex]

[tex]z = -0.77[/tex]

[tex]P(x \ge 45000) = P(z \ge -0.77)[/tex]

[tex]P(x \ge 45000) = 1 - P(z \le -0.77)[/tex]

From the table:

[tex]P(z \le -0.77) = 0.22065[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(x \ge 45000) = 1 - 0.22065[/tex]

[tex]P(x \ge 45000) = 0.77935[/tex]
