option 4

The value is not unusual.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of revenue between $747.89 and $818.68 million is low i. e. less than 5% then we can say that it would be unusual for a randomly selected company to have a revenue between $747.89 and 818.68 million.

We are given that revenue found to follow a bell curve. Also, we are given that mean=815.425 and standard deviation=22.148.

P (747.89
P ((747.89-815.425) / 22.148
P (747.89
Thus, the probability for a randomly selected company to have a revenue between $747.89 and 818.68 million is not low and so the value is not unusual.
