Patricia - first "normalize" the data, then use a Standard Normal Table to find t.

Explanation:

#P(25.2 < x < t) = P[(35.2-35.2)/4.7< z< (t-35.2)/4.7]= 0.148#

#= P[0< z< (t-35.2)/4.7]= 0.148#

Now, look up in a Standard Normal Table the area under the curve from 0 to z such that the area is equal to 0.148.

z = 0.380

Now, solve for t:

#(t-35.2)/4.7 = 0.380#

#t = 37.0#
