Solve Part a

Suppose X is a normally distributed variable with a mean of 10 and a deviation of 2. Please give a numerical solution for part (a)

a. Find p(X<0)

**Normal Distribution Problem**

Suppose \(X\) is a normally distributed variable with a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 2. Please give a numerical solution for part (a). Parts (b) and (c) are multiple choice, please select the correct answer.

a. (2) Find \(P(X<0)\)

b. (2) \(P(X>8)\)

   i) \(P(Z>-1)\)

   ii) \(1-P(Z>-1)\)

   iii) \(P(Z>1)\)

   iv) \(P(Z>2)\)

c. (2) \(P(X>14) = ?\)

   i) \(P(X<14)\)

   ii) \(P(X<-14)\)

   iii) \(P(X<6)\)

   iv) \(1-P(X<6)\)
