The time x a student spends learning a computer software package is normally distributed with a mean of 8 hours and a standard deviation of 1.5 hours. A student is selected at random.
What is the probability that the student spends less than 6 hours learning the software package?
______________
What is the probability that the student spends at least 8.5 hours learning the software package?

Normally Distributed
Normally distributed refers to a data distribution that follows a normal distribution curve, where most observations cluster around the mean and tails are symmetrical.
Learning Time
