Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean is 52000 miles (m) and the standard deviation is 2000 miles (sd), so we are asked:

P (x <52000)

P ((x - m) / sd <(52000 -52000) /2)

P (z <0)

If we look in the normal distribution table we have to:

P (x <52000) = 0.5

That is, the probability is of randomly selecting a car with a mileage less than 52,000 miles 50%
