Answer:

The minimum IQ score will be "126".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Mean

[tex]\mu = 100[/tex]

Standard deviation

[tex]\sigma=15[/tex]

Now,

⇒ [tex]P(z>x)=4 \ percent \ i.e., 0.04[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(z>\frac{x- \mu}{\sigma} )=0.04[/tex]

⇒ [tex]1-P(z \leq \frac{x-100}{15})=0.04[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{x-100}{15}=z0.96[/tex]

            [tex]=NORMDIS(z=0.96)[/tex]

            [tex]=1.751[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x=100+15\times 1.751[/tex]

      [tex]=126.265 \ i.e., 126[/tex]
