q-1 For borrowers with good credit scores, the mean debt for revolving and installment accounts is $15,015 (BusinessWeek, March 20, 2006). Assume the standard deviation is $3540 and that debt amounts are normally distributed. What is the probability that the debt for a borrower with good credit is between $12,000 and $18,000?
