Rest of the questions are bad quality, take a better picture.
Explanation:
The general approach to answering this item is to determine first the z-score of the given data and convert the z-scores to percentile. The equation for z-score determination is,
z-score = (X - μ) / σ
where X is the data, μ is the mean or average, and σ is the standard deviation.
(A) at most 2.7 minutes
z-score = (2.7 - 3.2) / 1.6 = -0.3125
This is equivalent to <em>37.73%</em>
(B) more than 3.5 minutes
z-score = (3.5 - 3.2) / 1.6 = 0.1875
This is equivalent to 57.44%. We are asked for more than so we take,
100 - 57.44% = <em>42.56%</em>
(C) z-score of 3.2 minutes
z-score = (3.2 - 3.2) / 1.6 = 0
This is equivalent to 50%.
z-score of 3.4 minutes
z-score = (3.4 - 3.2) / 1.6 = 0.125
This is equivalent to 54.97%
The difference of the two percentiles is <em>4.97%</em>.
