The mean monthly maximum temperatures for January in Canberra can be modelled by a Normal distribution with mean, μ = 25.95 OC and a standard deviation, σ = 1.13 OC. What is the probability that the average maximum temperature for a randomly selected January was more than 26.9 OC? (4 dp) What proportion of January months would you expect the average maximum temperature to be less than 24.9OC? (4 dp) What proportion of January months would you expect the average maximum temperature to be between 24.9OC and 26.9OC? (4 dp)

Scores on a standardized exam are known to follow a normal distribution with standard deviation σ = 21. A researcher randomly selects 125 students and computes their average score. He reports that the mean score is 73.8, with a margin of error of 2.920. How confident are you that the mean score for all students taking the exam is in the interval (70.88, 76.72)?
