Question

A company knows that the monthly average of licenses submitted during a year by its workers is 6.6, with a deviation of 1.4. With this information, the human resources department believes it can make a projection for the year following. Calculate the probability that the number of licenses for the following year is between 10 and 15. * You must associate the resolution of the exercise with a continuous distribution function.

First, convert \(X\) to the standard normal variable \(Z\) using the formula:
Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

For \(X = 10\):

Z = \frac{10 - 6.6}{1.4} \approx 2.43

For \(X = 15\):

Z = \frac{15 - 6.6}{1.4} \approx 6

Now, we need to find the probability for \(Z\) between these values:

P(2.43 \leq Z \leq 6)

Using standard normal distribution tables or a calculator, we find:

P(Z \leq 6) \approx 1

P(Z \geq 2.43) \approx 0.9925

Thus, the probability is:

P(2.43 \leq Z \leq 6) = P(Z \leq 6) - P(Z \geq 2.43)

P(2.43 \leq Z \leq 6) = 1 - 0.9925 = 0.0075

Therefore, the probability that the number of licenses for the following year is between 10 and 15 is:

\boxed{0.0075}
