Answer:

Number of dimes = 16

Number of quarters = 17

====================================================

Work Shown:

d = number of dimes

q = number of quarters

d+q = 33 coins total, this solves to d = 33-q

10d = value of all the dimes in cents

25q = value of all the quarters in cents

10d+25q = 585 cents total

--------------

Plug in d = 33-q and solve for q

10d+25q = 585

10(33-q) + 25q = 585

330-10q+25q = 585

15q+330 = 585

15q = 585-330

15q = 255

q = 255/15

q = 17

The man has 17 quarters

d = 33-q = 33-17 = 16

He also has 16 dimes.

--------------

Check:

16 dimes + 17 quarters = 33 coins total

16 dimes = 16*10 = 160 cents

17 quarters = 17*25 = 425 cents

160 cents + 425 cents = 585 cents

The answer is confirmed.

The normal distribution curve for the problem is shown below

We need to standardise the value X=405.5 by using the formula

z-score= \frac{X-Mean}{Standard Deviation}
z-score= \frac{405.5-402.7}{8.8} =0.32

We now need to find the probability of z=0.32 by reading the z-table

Note that z-table would give the reading to the left of z-score, so if your aim is to work out the area to the right of a z-score, then you'd need to do:

P(Z\ \textgreater \ z)=1 - P(Z\ \textless \ z)

from  the z-table, the reading P(Z\ \textless \ 0.32) gives 0.6255

hence, 
P(Z\ \textgreater \ 0.32)=1-0.6255=0.3475

The probability that the mean weight for a sample of 40 trout exceeds 405.5 gram is 0.3475 = 34.75%
