na recent year, the total scores for a certain standardized test were normally distributed, with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 10.7. Answer parts (a)-(d) below. The probability that a randomly selected medical student who took the test had a total score that was less than 487 is 0.0314. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (b) Find the probability that a randomly selected medical student who took the test had a total score that was between 498 and 511. The probability that a randomly selected medical student who took the test had a total score that was between 498 and 511 is 0.8147 (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (c) Find the probability that a randomly selected medical student who took the test had a total score that was more than 531. The probability that a randomly selected medical student who took the test had a total score that was more than 531 is 0,9981 (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
(d) Identify any unusual events. Explain your reasoning. Choose the correct answer below.
A. None of the events are unusual because all the probabilities are greater than 0.05.
O B. The event in part (c) is unusual because its probability is less than 0.05.
OC. The events in parts (a) and (b) are unusual because their probabilities are less than 0.05.
