**Problem 6.** Given a probability density function (pdf) that follows a normal distribution \(N(7, 5^2)\), find \(P(|x - 5| > 3)\).

This problem involves understanding a normal distribution with a mean of 7 and a variance of \(5^2 = 25\). The task is to compute the probability that the absolute difference between \(x\) and 5 is greater than 3.
