    Answer:

    Randomly selected adult has an IQ less than 136 is 0.9641

    Step-by-step explanation:

    It is given that, it is normal distribution with mean 100 and SD as 20.

    So, let’s use the formula of z-score

    z=\frac{x-mean}{SD}

    For this problem,

    x= 136

    Plug in this value into the formula

    z-score=\frac{136-100}{20}

           =1.8

    Now, use z-score table to find the probability

    Find the corresponding value for the row 1.8 and the column 0.00, we do get 0.9641

    So, Randomly selected adult has an IQ less than 136 is 0.9641
