Saved a checkpoint:

Since you define the variables n, mu and sigma in R, the student can write rnorm(n,mu,sigma) and it's marked correct.

I think you should either not pass them through as variables, but sub into the preamble, or pass them through under hard-to-guess names.

The expected answer should certainly use the literal numbers, rather than the names.
