The random variable X has expected value E(X)=4 and Var(X)=4. Here, we want to approximate the probability that X lies in the interval [3.4,5.4] using a transformation to a standard normal distribution Z. Then we will need to calculate the probability that Z lies in the interval [z1,z2] where z1= z2= Suggest z1 and z2 Do NOT attempt to make any sort of continuity correction.
