    Hi!

    I can't seem to work out the following answer, could you guys please help?

    Example on page 9:

    I don't understand how to get exp[(-U^2)/2] on the first line of E(z) after substituting u = (X-500)/20

    That means σ needs to be 20, how do I get that?

    Thank you very much!

    The claims have a N(500,400) distribution, so σ^2 = 400, and σ = 20.
