Find the probability that his score is at least 590


Scores for men on the verbal portion of the SAT-I test are normally distributed with a mean of 509 and standard deviation of 112 (based on data from the College Board). Randomly selected men given the Colombia Review Course before taking the SAT test. Assume that the course has no effect.
a. If 1 of the men is randomly selected, find the probability that his score is at least 590.
b. If 16 of the men are randomly selected find the probabilty that their mean score is at least 590.
c.In finding the probability for part (b) why can the central limit theorem be used even though the sample size does not exceed 30?
d. If the random sample of 16 men does result in a mean score of 590 is there strong evidence to support the claim that the course is actually effective? why or why not?
