b. What is the probability that the sample mean exceeds the population mean by more than $5? (Hint: Look at the z formula. What is the result of the numerator of the formula?)

c. What is the probability that the sample mean is more than $4 below the population mean?

d. What is the probability that the sample mean differs from the population mean by more than $3?
