Answer:
0.11685
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Mean, p= 6% = 0.06
x = 8%,, x = 0.08
Probability that over 8% will not make timely payment :
Standard deviation (σ) = sqrt[(pq) /n]
q = 1 – p = 1 – 0.06 = 0.94
σ = sqrt[(0.06*0.94)/200)] = sqrt(0.000282) = 0.0167928
Obtain the Z score :
P(x > 0.08) = (0.08 – 0.06) / 0.0167928
P(x > 0.08) = 0.02 / 0.0167928
P(x > 0.08) = 1.1909826
P(Z > 1.1909) = 0.11685 (Z probability calculator)
