You can put this solution on YOUR website! What is the mean of a normal random variable X given that standard deviation is equal to four, and the probability that X is more than 5.52 = .305
-------------------------------------
Find the z-value with a right tail of 0.305
invNorm(0.695) = 0.5101
---
Use x = zs+u to find "u":
5.52 = 0.5101*4 + u
---
u = 5.52-2.0403
u = 3.4797
