MAKE A DECISION: WAGES The employees of a large corporation are paid an average wage of 14.50 dollars per hour with a standard deviation of 1.50 dollars. Assume that these wages are normally distributed. (a) Use a computer or graphing utility and Simpson's Rule (with $n=10$ ) to approximate the percent of employees that earn hourly wages of 11.00 dollars to 14.00 dollars. (b) Will $20 \%$ of the employees be paid more than 16.00 dollar per hour?
