**Normal Distribution Probabilities**  

**Problem:** Assume that \( x \) has a normal distribution with the specified mean and standard deviation. Find the indicated probabilities:

**a) Probability \( P(4 \leq x \leq 5) \); given \( \mu = 4 \), and \( \sigma = 2 \).**  

*Diagram:* A standard normal distribution curve is shown, centered around the mean \( \mu = 4 \). The area between \( x = 4 \) and \( x = 5 \) is highlighted under the curve to indicate the probability to be calculated.  

**b) Probability \( P(x \geq 30) \); given \( \mu = 25 \), and \( \sigma = 3 \).**

*Diagram:* A standard normal distribution curve is shown, centered around the mean \( \mu = 25 \). The tail to the right of \( x = 30 \) is highlighted under the curve to indicate the probability to be calculated.

\[ P(4 \leq x \leq 5) = \underline{\hspace{3em}} \]

\[ P(x \geq 30) = \underline{\hspace{3em}} \]
