Salaries for senior Civil engineers per year have known mean of 80 K dollars and standard deviation 3.4 K dollars. Provided that the salaries per year for senior Civil engineers are normally distributed, what's the probability of finding a Civil engineer whose salary is between 73.2 K and 90.2 K dollars? Find the answer without using the normalcdf(...) function.

Suppose that you are designing an instrument panel for a large industrial machine. The machine requires the person using it to reach 2 feet from a particular position. The reach from this position for adult women is known to have a mean of 2.7 feet with a standard deviation of 0.5. The reach for adult men is known to have a mean of 3.1 feet with a standard deviation of 0.7. Both women's and men's reach from this position is normally distributed. If this design is implemented, (a) what percentage of women will not be able to work on this instrument panel? (b) What percentage of men will not be able to work on this instrument panel?
