What is the formula used to find your z-score for a normal distribution in words?

z = (x-mu)/(sigma)

How do you transform A Standard z-Score To A Data Value x In A Given Population ?

If 

z=(x-mu)/sigma

then

x = (z)(sigma)+mu

A recent study showed that 75% of adults believe that math has made the world a better place. A local university student polled 100 random people. Find the probability his results show between 72% and 77% hold this same opinion. (Find  sigma_hat(p) to four decimal places)

Our z-scores are 0.46 and -0.69 which gives respective probabilities which we can subtract to find the answer which is .6772 - .2451 = .4321.
