Here's the Solution to this Question

1) P(3000<X<3500)=P(\frac{3000-3388}{595}<Z<\frac{3500-3388}{595})=

=P(-0.65<Z<0.19)=P(Z<0.19)-P(Z<-0.65)=0.3175.


2) P(3000<\bar X<3500)=P(\frac{3000-3388}{\frac{595}{\sqrt{24}}}<Z<\frac{3500-3388}{\frac{595}{\sqrt{24}}})=

=P(-3.19<Z<0.92)=P(Z<0.92)-P(Z<-3.19)=0.8205.
