This is a good question!

The steps are like follows:

Form the confidence level (99%), we calculate the "alpha" value
alpha=1-(99/100)=0.01

Now, calculate the critical probability (p-start)
p*=1-(alpha/2)=1-(0.01/2)=0.995

z-score could be calculated from p*,,,
z-score=<span>2.57583
(http://www.socscistatistics.com/tests/ztest/zscorecalculator.aspx)

Now, calculate the Margin of Error:
</span>standard<span> deviation = s
number of adults = n
</span><span>
ME=(z*s)/(sqrt n)=(</span><span>2.57583*12)/(sqrt 250) = 1.955

The confidence interval = mean +or- ME
                                      = 70+1.955</span>  or  70-1.955


So that we can conclude that <span>the 99% confidence interval for the mean beats per minute is 68.045 and 71.955

</span>

I hope you got the idea!

Mu=80, sigma=39, X=85
Z=(X-mu)/sigma = 5/39=0.128=0.13
P(X<=85)= 0.5517 (from Z-table)
so, P(X>85)=1-0.5517=0.4483 approx. thats 44.8% probability.
