Explanation / Answer

21) mean = 246300

Sd = 15000

1 - 0.8 = 0.2

1 - 0.2/2 = 0.9

P(X < max) = 0.9

Or, P(Z < (max - 246300)/15000) = 0.9

Or, (max - 246300)/15000 = 1.28

Or, max = 246300 + 1.28 * 15000 = 265500

Similarly for minimum,

P(X < min) = 0.1

Or, min = 246300 - 1.28 * 15000 = 227100

So, maximum value is 265500 and minimum value is 227100
