<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Given : A standardized​ exam's scores are normally distributed.

Mean test score : \mu=1490

Standard deviation : \sigma=320

Let x be the random variable that represents the scores of students .

z-score : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We know that generally , z-scores lower than -1.96 or higher than 1.96 are considered unusual .

For x= 1900

z=\dfrac{1900-1490}{320}\approx1.28

Since it lies between -1.96 and 1.96 , thus it is not unusual.

For x= 1240

z=\dfrac{1240-1490}{320}\approx-0.78

Since it lies between -1.96 and 1.96 , thus it is not unusual.

For x= 2190

z=\dfrac{2190-1490}{320}\approx2.19

Since it is greater than 1.96 , thus it is unusual.

For x= 1240

z=\dfrac{1370-1490}{320}\approx-0.38

Since it lies between -1.96 and 1.96 , thus it is not unusual.
