Answer:
84.13%
Explanation:
Population mean (μ) = 500 hours
Standard deviation (σ) = 50 hours
Assuming a normal distribution, for any given number of hours 'X', the z-score is determined by:

For X=550

For a z-score of 1, 'X' corresponds to the 84.13-th percentile of a normal distribution.
Therefore, the probability of that a randomly chosen light bulb lasts less than 550 hours, P(X<550), is 84.13%.
