Hi,
TI syntax is normalcdf(smaller, larger, µ, σ).
Mean 56 SD = 4
a. Between 53 and 59 years old:
P(53 ≤ x ≤ 59)= normalcdf(53, 59, 56, 4)=.5467
b. Between 58 and 63 years old:
P(58 ≤ x ≤ 63)= normalcdf(59, 63, 56, 4) = .1857
c. Between 50 and 55 years old:
P(50 ≤ x ≤ 55)= normalcdf(50, 55, 56, 4) = .3345
