A study shows that the intelligence quotient (IQ) of adults in a country follows a normal distribution. The mean of the same population is 90 and its standard deviation is 4.5. If an adult is randomly chosen from the said country, what is the probability that its IQ is greater than 100? If an adult is randomly chosen from the said country, what is the probability that its IQ is less than 95? If an adult is randomly chosen from the said country, what is the probability that its IQ is between 88 and 92? NOTE: Your answer must in FOUR DECIMAL places.
