calculus class has stated that, historically, the distribution of final exam grades in the course resemble a Normal distribution with a mean final exam mark of μ=60% and a standard deviation of σ=9%. If using/finding z-values, use three decimals. (a) What is the probability that a random chosen final exam mark in this course will be at least 72%? Answer to four decimals. (b) In order to pass this course, a student must have a final exam mark of at least 50%. What proportion of students will not pass the calculus final exam? Use four decimals in your answer. (c) The top 2% of students writing the final exam will receive a letter grade of at least an A in the course. To two decimal places, find the minimum final exam mark needed on the calculus final to earn a letter grade of at least an A in the course. _________%
