The answer to these questions are

  • Option A: This is in the attachment
  • Option B : 24 and 54
  • Option C: 97.59%
  • Option D: 84.13%

How to find the point where the distribution lies at 99.7%. The data is 3 sd from mean

Hence

39 - 3*(5) = 24

39 + 3*(5) = 54

The widget lies between 24 and 54

c. P(29.0 < x < 54.0)

= 29 - 39 / 5 and 54 - 39 / 5

= -2.0 and 3.0

We have to find P(Z < 3.0) - P(Z < -2.0)

= 0.9987 - 0.0228

= 97.59%

d. x = 44

= 44 - 39/ 5

= 1

We are to find P(z < 1.0)  = 84.13%
