    The normal distribution



    The life-time of a popular computer flatscreen is known to follow a normal distribution with a mean μ = 2000 hours and standard deviation σ = 200 hours. If a computer flatscreen is selected at random, find the probability that it will last for:
    Less than 2500 hours.
    More than 1900 hours.
    Between 2000 and 2400 hours.
