Step-by-step explanation:

Normalcdf on a TI-84 is found by pressing 2nd->vars->2

A) normalcdf(low = 273, high = ∞, mu = 252, sd = 12) = .04

B) normalcdf(low = 249, high = 261, mu = 252, sd = 12) = .372

C) normalcdf(low = 0, high = 237, mu = 252, sd = 12) = .106

D) normalcdf(low = 0, high = 234, mu = 252, sd = 12) = .067

    Yes, this is unusual since there is only a 6.7% chance of it occurring.

Hope this helps!
