Answer:

a) x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 2.98 + 1.71*0.36 = 3.5956

b) x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 21.6 + 1.18*7.1 = 29.978

c) x = \mu -z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 150 - 1.35*40= 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = 1.71, \mu = 2.98,\sigma = 0.36

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 2.98 + 1.71*0.36 = 3.5956

Part b

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = 1.18, \mu = 21.6,\sigma = 7.1

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 21.6 + 1.18*7.1 = 29.978

Part c

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = -1.35, \mu = 150,\sigma = 40

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu -z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 150 - 1.35*40= 96
