(a) What is the probability that X is greater than $40, 000?
(b) What is the probability that X is between $30, 000 and $90, 000?
(c) Suppose we interviewed 5 randomly selected SBU graduates
and their salaries are X1, X2, …, X5. Denote the average salaries
of these 5 people as X = X1+X2+X3+X4+X5 . What is the ex-5
pectation and the variance of X?

(Hint: Use the standard normal table to answer (a) and (b).)
