Alightbulb has a normally distributed light output with mean 5000 end foot-candles and standard deviation of 50 end foot-candles. find a lower specification limit such that

To find the specification limit such that only 0.5% of the bulbs will not exceed this limit we proceed as follows;
From the z-table, a z-score of -2.57 cuts off 0.005 in the left tail; given the formula for z-score
(x-μ)/σ
we shall have:
(x-5000)/50=-2.57
solving for x we get:
x-5000=-128.5
x=-128.5+5000
x=4871.50

Is it multiple choice
