) Andrew plans to retire in 32 years. He plans to invest part of his retirement funds in stocks, so he seeks out information on past returns. He learns that over the entire 20th century, the real (that is, adjusted for inflation) annual returns on U. S. common stocks had mean 8.7% and standard deviation 20.2%.

(b) What is the probability that the mean return will be less than 8%?
