QWARROWGO

Weight represents the top 10% of the zucchinis is 5.9

The formula for calculating a z-score is z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

We're looking for:

Weight is 10% of zucchinis at the top.

Top 10% = 90% of the population

90th percentile Z score is 1.282.

Hence

1.282 = x - 5 / 0.7

1.282 × 0.7 = x - 5

0.8974 = x - 5

x = 5 + 0.8974

x = 5.8974

5.9 ounces, roughly.

The top 10% of the zucchinis have a weight of 5.9 ounces.
