Question 8 A survey was conducted to measure the number of hours per week adults in the United States spend on their computers. In the survey. the numbers of hours were normally distributed, with a mean of 7 hours and a standard deviation of 1 hour. A survey participant is randomly selected. (a) Find the probability that the number of hours spent on the computer by the participant is less than 5 hours per week. (b) Find the probability that the number of hours spent on the computer by the participant is between 5.5 and 9.5 hours per week. (c) Find the probability that the number of hours spent on the computer by the participant is more than 10 hours per week. Pagesou STA\"?

Question 1] Use the normal distribution of men's total cholesterol levels in question 6(b) for which the mean is 209 milligram per deciliter and the standard deviation is 37.8 milligrams per deciliter. (a) What percent of the men have a total cholesterol level less than 225 milligrams per deciliter of blood? (b) [f 250 U.S. men in the 3544 age group are randome selected, about how many would you expect to have a total cholesterol level greater than 260 milligrams per deciliter of blood?
