### Systolic Blood Pressure Analysis

#### Introduction
Assume that the mean systolic blood pressure of normal adults is 120 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and the standard deviation is 5.6 mmHg. The variable is normally distributed. Answers should be rounded to at least 4 decimal places, and intermediate z-value calculations to 2 decimal places.

#### Part 1 of 3
**Problem:** If an individual is selected, find the probability that the individual's pressure will be between 117.3 and 120 mmHg.

**Solution:**
- Probability: \( P(117.3 < X < 120) = 0.1844 \)

A checkmark indicates that the calculation is correct.

#### Visualization
A progress bar shows the completion status of this exercise, currently on "Part: 1 / 3."

#### Part 2 of 3
**Problem:** If a sample of 39 adults is randomly selected, find the probability that the sample mean will be between 117.3 and 120 mmHg. Assume the sample is from a large population, and the correction factor can be ignored.

**Solution:**
A calculation interface is provided to determine the probability, expressed as:  
\( P(117.3 < \bar{X} < 120) = \) [input field with calculation tools]

This exercise continues with the user required to enter the correct solution using the provided interface tools.
