Surely you can do the first part. It's a straightforward application of the normal distribution.
For the second part you just need to know what the mean and standard deviation of the random samples are.
Given N samples you should know that the sample mean is distributed as \(\displaystyle Normal\left(\mu, \dfrac{\sigma_p}{\sqrt{N}}\right)\)
where \(\displaystyle \mu=14~yr\) is the population mean and \(\displaystyle \sigma_p=7.5~yr\) is the standard deviation of the population.
Then just apply what you did in the first part of the problem with the new standard deviation.
