Expert Solution
Step 1

Hello. Since your question has multiple sub-parts, we will solve first three sub-parts for you. If you want remaining sub-parts to be solved, then please resubmit the whole question and specify those sub-parts you want us to solve.

Given:

Mean, μ=76

Standard deviation, σ=12

X~N (76, 12)

(a) Percentage of student who scored between 64 and 76:

P (64<X<76)=P 64-7612<X-μσ<76-7612                          =P -1<Z<0                          =P(Z<0)-P(Z<-1)                          =0.5000-0.1587                          =0.3413                          =34.13%

Hence, percentage of student who scored between 64 and 76 is 34.13%.
