Expert Solution
Step 1

We are given that 
X is a normal random variable with μ = 500 and σ = 75.

We have to find the value of 

a)P(X<750)

  Using the z-transform formula, we get 
   z = 750-50075=25075=3.33
  From the standard normal distribution table, we find the value of P(z<3.33) = 0.99957
   So, we get P(X < 750) = 0.99957
