A normal curve has a horizontal axis labeled "X" and two horizontal coordinates, 235 and 266. The curve's peak is near the top of the graph at horizontal coordinate 266. Two vertical line segments run from the horizontal axis to the curve at 235 and 266. The area under the curve to the left of 235 is shaded.
