Probability Using Normal Distribution of SAT Scores
25. The College Board American College Testing Program reported a population mean SAT score of µ 1020 (The World Almanac 2003). Assume that the population standard deviation is 100.
a. What is the probability that a random sample of 75 students will provide a sample mean SAT score within 10 of the population mean?
b. What is the probability a random sample of 75 students will provide a sample mean SAT score within 20 of the population mean?

Mean within 10 of the population mean
Mean= M = 1020
Standard deviation =s = 100 ...
