The required probability P (X < 3.50). What question do you need help with? 

Now,
X−μ 3.50−μ
P (X < 3.50) = P ( < )
σ σ

3.50−5.81
P (X < 3.50) = P (Z < )
0.81

P (X < 3.50) = P (Z < −2.852)

Using excel function to calculate the above probability:

= N ORM DI ST (−2.852, 0, 1, 1)

Now,

P(X < 3.50) = 0.0022
