The concentration of blood hemoglobin in middle-aged adult males is normally distributed with a mean of 15.1 g/dL and a standard deviation of 0.92 g/dL. If a middle-aged adult male is randomly selected, determine the probability that his blood hemoglobin concentration will be: Less than 13.5 g/dL Greater than 16 g/dL Between 13.8 and 17.2 g/dL
