According to a recent study, the mean number of hours college students spent playing video games per month was 22 hours with a population standard deviation of 2 hours. Two weeks before final exams were scheduled to begin, 100 college students were randomly selected.

Answer:

0.15866

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean, m = 22

Standard deviation, s = 2

Sample size, n = 100

P(x < 21.8):

Obtain the Zscore ;

Z = (x - m) ÷s/sqrt(n)

Z = (21.8 - 22) ÷ 2/sqrt(100)

Z = - 0. 2 ÷ 0.2

Z = - 1

P(Z < - 1)

From Z probability calculator :

P(Z < - 1) = 0.15866

Hence, Probability of obtaining a score less than. 21.8 is 0.15866
