Let Y have the lognormal distribution with mean 78.8 and variance 160.20. Compute the following probabilities. (You may find it useful to reference the z table. Round your intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places, “z” value to 2 decimal places, and final answers to 4 decimal places.)

P(Y > 106)
P(74 < y < 106)
