Values of HDL cholesterol levels (good cholesterol) vary in a certain population with values according to a normal distribution of mean 32.0 and standard deviation 4.0 ml/dl. Answer the following questions: a. What is the probability of randomly selecting an HDL cholesterol measurement with cholesterol below 30.0 knowing that the value is below 34.0 ml/dl? B. What is the probability of randomly selecting an HDL cholesterol measurement with cholesterol below 26.9 ml/dl? c. below what cholesterol are 70% of cholesterol measurements?
