(10 points) In 1988, men averaged about 500 on the math SAT,
the standard deviation was about 100, and their scores followed a
normal distribution. One of the men who took the math SAT in 1988
will be picked at random, and you have to guess his test score. You
will be given 75 dollars if you guess it right to within 50
points.

What one number should you guess?
With this guess, what is your probability of winning the 75
dollars?
