Exam Score under 60 60697079808990100 Frequency30301406040\begin{array} {| l|ccccc| } \hline \text {Exam Score }&\text {under 60 }&60-69&70-79&80-89&90-100\\\hline \text { Frequency}&30&30&140&60&40\\\hline\end{array}


i) Assuming a normal distribution with μ=75\mu = 75 and σ=15\sigma = 15 , find the probability of a randomly selected subject belonging to each class. (Use boundaries of 59.5,69.5,79.5,89.559.5,69.5,79.5,89.5 , 100.)
ii) Using the probabilities found in part (i), find the expected frequency for each category.
iii) Use a 0.050.05 significance level to test the claim that the exam scores were randomly selected from a normally distributed population with μ=75\mu = 75 and σ=15\sigma = 15 .
