We have that the total students there are 500. The 12-graders there are 200. Probability is defined as the ratio of positive outcomes of an event, over all the possible outcomes. Suppose we pick student randomly. Then, there are 200 positive outcomes (positive outcome: we pick a student in 12th grade) and there are totally 500 outcomes (we can pick 500 students in total from Riverside High School). This ratio gives: 
. The requested probability is 0.40
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this complete question:
"Suppose a certain species of fawns between 1 and 5 months old have a body weight that is approximately normally distributed with mean kilograms and standard deviation
kilograms. Let x be the weight of a fawn in kilograms. Convert the following z interval to a x interval.
"

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".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
Where and
And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:
We know that the Z scale and the normal distribution are equivalent since the Z scales is a linear transformation of the normal distribution.
We can convert the corresponding z score for x=42.6 like this:
So then the corresponding z scale would be:
