Answer:

0.8224

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

  • mean: $76
  • standard deviation, sd: $10
  • first value of interest, x1: $63
  • second value of interest, x2: $90

z-score for x1:

z1 = (x1 - mean)/sd = (63 - 76)/10 = -1.3

z-score for x2:

z2 = (x2 - mean)/sd = (90 - 76)/10 =  1.4

The  proportion of wrist watch prices are between $63 and $90 is:

P(z1 < z < z2) = P(z < 1.4) - P(z < -1.3)

P(z < 1.4) = 0.9192 (see first picture attached)

P(z < -1.3) = 0.0968 (see second picture attached)

P(z1 < z < z2) = 0.9192 - 0.0968 = 0.8224
