Explanation:

We need to find the 2.5th percentile and the 97.5th percentile for the z-distribution with 100 observations. The formula to apply is:

[\bar{X} - 1.96 * (\frac{s}{\sqrt{N}}), \bar{X} + 1.96 * (\frac{s}{\sqrt{N}})]

Where ( N = 100 )

[= $200,000 - 1.96(\frac{$34,456}{\sqrt{100}}), $200,000 + 1.96(\frac{$34,456}{\sqrt{100}})] [= [$193,246.624, $206,753.376]]

This matches option A [193,247,193,247, 206,753] after rounding.
