the pregnancy length in days for a population of new mothers can be approximated
by a normal distribution with a mean of 267 days and a standard deviation of days.
​(a) What is the minimum pregnancy length that can be in the top 12​% of pregnancy​ lengths?
​(b) What is the maximum pregnancy length that can be in the bottom 7​% of pregnancy​ lengths?
