- Suppose the scores of students on an exam are normally distributed with a mean of 376 and a standard deviation of 30. Then approximately 95% of the exam scores lie between the integers _ & _ such that the mean is half way between these two integers. I know the answers are 316 and 436. But I don't know how they got them. I cannot use excel and so I need help to solve this by hand. Thanks so much in advance!arrow_forwardCNNBC recently reported that the mean annual cost of auto insurance is 1004 dollars. Assume the standard deviation is 212 dollars.
