\mu=75,\sigma=7 calculate z-scores for 80 and 88 as z_1=\frac{80-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{80-75}{7}\approx0.7143 z_2=\frac{88-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{88-75}{7}\approx1.8571 refer to any z-score calculator or table to get P(0.7143 < Z < 1.8571) = 0.2059 approx required probability = 0.2059

Suppose you have a sample of 100 values from a population with mean mu = 500 and standard deviation sigma = 80. Given that P(z < −1.25) = 0.10565 and P(z < 1.25) = 0.89435, the probability that the sample mean is in the interval (490, 510) is: A)78.87% B)89.44% C)10.57% D)68.27%
