Answer:

z(70)=(70-73)/7.8/sqrt(24)=-1.88442228...

P(z<-1.88442228...)=0.02975...


Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:  Option 'D' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 73

Standard deviation = 7.8

Number of students are randomly selected = 24

So, n = 24.

Since it is normally distributed , so, we have

[tex]P(x<70)=P(z<\frac{X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}})=P(z<\frac{70-73}{\frac{7.8}{\sqrt{24}}}\\\\P(z<\frac{-3}{1.592})\\\\=P(z<-1.88)\\\\=0.03005=0.0301/tex]

Hence, Option 'D' is correct.
