(i)


"P(700<X<900)=P(Z<\\dfrac{900-800}{200})"

"-P(Z\\le\\dfrac{700-800}{200})"

"=P(Z<0.5)-P(Z\\le-0.5)"

"\\approx0.69146-0.30854\\approx0.3829"

"0.3829(500)=1915" workers


(ii)


"P(X>1000)=1-P(Z\\le\\dfrac{1000-800}{200})"

"=1-P(Z\\le1)\\approx0.1587"

"15.87" %


(iii)


"P(X<600)=P(Z<\\dfrac{600-800}{200})"

"=P(Z<-1)\\approx0.1587"

"15.87" %
