The population mean of a company's racing bicycles is 9.07 kg (20.0 1b) with a population standard deviation of 0.40 kg. If the distribution is approximately normal, determine (a) the percentage of bicycles less than 8.30 kg, (b) the percentage of bicycles greater than 10.00 kg, and (c) the percentage of bicycles between 8.00 and 10.10 kg.
