Given:


\operatorname{mean}\text{ (}\mu)=\text{ \$321000 ; }\sigma=\text{ \$38000}

a)Between $283000 and $359000


P(283000<strong>b)above $359000</strong>[tex]P(x>359000)=P(z>0)
P(x>359000)=0.5
P(x>359000)=50\text{ \%}

c)below $207000


P(x<207000)=P(z<-3)
P(x<207000)=0.00135
P(x<207000)=0.14\text{ \%}

d) between $207000 and $359000

[tex]P(207000
