For certain workers, the mean wage is $6.00/hr, with a standard deviation of $0.75. If a worker is chosen at random, what is the probability that the worker's wage is between $4.50 and $7.50? Assume a normal distribution of wages. The probability is (Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest thousandth as needed.)
