Please help me don't do handwritten please explain concept and stepwise, i will definitely like the answer.. A student has submitted a concrete cylinder to the "strength contest" in Engineering Open House, and is scheduled to be the last contestant for load testing. The process producing her concrete cylinder yields strength that is normally distributed with mean = 80 kips and standard deviation = 20 kips (a kip is a non-SI unit of force). Immediately prior to her cylinder being tested, the two highest strengths in the contest thus far are 100 kips and 70 kips.  A. What is the probability that this student will be the second place winner?    B. Now the cylinder (from A) is being tested and it has not shown any kind of distress at a load of 90 kips. What is the probability that this student will win first place?.
