The article "Monte Carlo Simulation Tool for Better Understanding of LRFD" suggests that yield strength (ksi) for A36 grade steel is normally distributed with = 43 and o = 4.5. (a) What is the probability that yield strength is at most 40? Greater than 60? (b) What yield strength value separates the strongest 75% from the others?
