Hi
Normal Distribution:    μ = 78   σ = 10
Using TI or similarly like an inexpensive Casio fx-115 ES plus 
p(x ≤ 75) = normalcdf (-9999, 75, 78, 10) = .3821    |-9999 a placeholder only

Important to feel comfortable using Your calculator
and know what is permissible for in-class testing.
Wish You the Best in your Studies.
