Respuesta :

The is a probability of 15.87% that if you bake 34 muffins it would run out of today.

What is z score

Z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:

z = (x - μ) / σ

Where x = raw score, μ = mean and σ = standard deviation.

Given that σ = 6, μ = 40, hence:

For x = 34:

z = (34 - 40)/6 = -1

P(z < -1) = 0.1587

The is a probability of 15.87% that if you bake 34 muffins it would run out of today.
