D-Thickness measurements of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village are approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 4.7 millimeters (mm) and a standard deviation of 1.0 mm. For a randomly found shard, find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

(a) the thickness is less than 3.0 mm

(b) the thickness is more than 7.0 mm

(c) the thickness is between 3.0 mm and 7.0 mm

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
