Step 1 :

\

The hourly wage of the babysitter is $ 12 per hour.

\

Mean wage of the babysitter is $ 14 per hour. \ \

\

Standard deviation is 1.9.

\

Calculate Z-score. \ \

\

z - Score formula is \"\".

\

where \"image\" is hourly wage of the babysitter,

\

\"image\" is the mean and

\

\"image\" is the standard deviation.

\

\"\"

\

The Z-score is -1.05. \ \

\

Step 2 :

\

Find the probability that babysitter wage is greater than $ 12 per hour, \"\".

\

\"\"

\

From z - score table the probability is \"\".

\

\"\"

\

The probability that babysitter wage is greater than $ 12 per hour is 0.8531. \ \

\

Solution:

\

The Z-score is -1.05.

\

The probability that babysitter wage is greater than $ 12 per hour is 0.8531. \ \
