Answer:

37

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 128

Mean, μ = 18

Standard deviation, σ = 5.4

Number of people who lost atleast 15 pounds :

The Zscore = (x - μ) / (σ)

Zscore = (15 - 18) / 5.4

Zscore = - 3 / 5.4

Zscore = - 0.5555

P(Z < - 0.555) = 0.28945

Number of people who lost atleast 15 pounds :

0.28945 * 128 = 37.0496

= 37 people
