Q. Complete the statement. Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.In a population that is normally distributed with mean 1 and standard deviation 21, the bottom 30% of the values are those less than ___.
Find z-score for 30th percentile: Find the z-score for the 30th percentile. Using a z-table or calculator, the z-score for 30% is approximately −0.52.
Use z-score formula: Use the z-score formula to find the value (X).Z=standard deviation(X−mean)−0.52=21(X−1)
Solve for X: Solve for X.X−1=−0.52×21X−1=−10.92X=−10.92+1X=−9.92
