### Sodium Consumption by American MenThe average American man consumes 9.9 grams of sodium each day. Suppose that the sodium consumption of American men is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 1 gram. Suppose an American man is randomly chosen. Let \( X \) represent the amount of sodium consumed. Round all numeric answers to four decimal places where possible.#### Questions:**a. What is the distribution of \( X \)?** \( X \sim N( \, \_\_\_\_ , \, \_\_\_\_ ) \) [Normal distribution]**b. Find the probability that this American man consumes between 9.6 and 11.5 grams of sodium per day.** [Probability calculation box]**c. The middle 30% of American men consume between what two weights of sodium?** - **Low:** [Input Box] - **High:** [Input Box] ---The problem involves understanding normal distribution and using statistical methods to calculate probabilities and percentiles related to sodium consumption.
