The lengths of a particular animal's pregnancies are approximately normally distributed, with mean µ=251 days and standard deviation o=8 days. (a) What proportion of pregnancies lasts more than 255 days? (b) What proportion of pregnancies lasts between 249 and 253 days? (c) What is the probability that a randomly selected pregnancy lasts no more than 241 days? (d) A "very preterm" baby is one whose gestation period is less than 231 days. Are very preterm babies unusual? Click the icon to view a table of areas under the normal curve. (a) The proportion of pregnancies that last more than 255 days is 0.3085 (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (b) The proportion of pregnancies that last between 249 and 253 days is 0.1974. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) ICCER (c) The probability that a randomly selected pregnancy lasts no more than 241 days is 0.1056 (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
