**Question: gr2es10r.380**

---

A sample has \( M = 71 \) and \( s = 3 \). In this sample, what is the \( X \) value corresponding to \( z = +1.33 \)?

**Options:**
- a. \( X = 60 \)
- b. \( X = 77 \)
- c. \( X = 67 \)
- d. \( X = 75 \)

---

**Select the correct X value.**

---

This problem asks you to determine the value of \( X \) given a sample mean \( (M) \), standard deviation \( (s) \), and a z-score \( (z) \). 

**Solution Approach:**
Use the z-score formula:
\[ z = \frac{X - M}{s} \]

Rearrange it to find \( X \):
\[ X = (z \cdot s) + M \]

**Substitute the values:**
\[ z = 1.33, \, s = 3, \, M = 71 \]
\[ X = (1.33 \cdot 3) + 71 \]
\[ X = 3.99 + 71 \]
\[ X = 74.99 \]

Since the closest value to 74.99 in the given options is 75:

**Correct Answer:**
- d. \( X = 75 \)
