Question

As part of a research project, the blood pressure of 3000 patients in a hosptial are recorded. The systolic blood pressures (given in millimeters) have an approximately normal distribution with mean $\mu = 125$ and standard deviation $\sigma = 17$. Use this information to answer parts (a) and (b).
