The population mean of a company’s racing bicycles is 9.07 kg with population standard deviation of 0.40 kg. If the distribution is approximately normal, determine: (a) the percentage of bicycles less than 8.30 kg. (b) the percentage of bicycles greater than 10 kg. (c) the percentage of bicycles between 8.00 and 10.10 kg.
