The mean is \mu=85 and standard deviation is \sigma=5. Then the variable X\sim N(85,5).

Use substitution Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{X-85}{5}, then the variable Z\sim N(0,1).

The probability Pr(X>80) can be calculated in the following way:

for X=80, Z=\dfrac{80-85}{5} =-1 and Pr(X>80)=Pr(Z>-1). From the diagram Pr(Z>-1)=0.34+0.34+0.135+0.025=0.84.

Conclusion: if 188 students take the exam, then 188·0.84=157.92 (157) would receive a score above 80

First, do  40 - 12 = 28 (Subtract the change), then do 28 / 7 to get 4, so then we do the cans times 3 to see how many individual balls he has, which would be 12
