    Answer: The answer is 6.68%

    Explanation:

    Using the z value formula

    Z = x - mean / standard deviation

    x = $47,500

    Mean = $40,000

    Standard deviation = $5,000

    = 47,500 - 40,000 / 5,000

    = 7,500 / 5,000

    = 1.5

    Then we look for z value of 1.5 to the left of normal distribution table because the probability is at least

    The z value is 0.0668

    0.0668 * 100

    = 6.68%

    Therefore the probability that an individual with an MBA degree will get a starting salary of at least $47,500 is 6.68%
