A person's blood glucose level and diabetes are closely related. Let x be a random variable measured in milligrams of glucose per deciliter (1/10 of a liter) of blood. Suppose that after a 12-hour fast, the random variable x will have a distribution that is approximately normal with mean μμ = 85 and standard deviation σσ = 21. Note: After 50 years of age, both the mean and standard deviation tend to increase. For an adult (under 50) after a 12-hour fast, find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) a.) x is more than 60 b.) x is less than 110 c.) x is between 60 and 110 d.) x is greater than 125 (borderline diabetes starts at 125)
