Algebra.Com's Answer #650357 by robertb(5830)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 55 to 65 are 1 standard deviation from the mean 60, and hence by the empirical rule, around 68% of all observations lie bet ween 55 and 65.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "50 to 70 are 2 standard deviations from the mean 60, and hence by the empirical rule, around 95% of all observations lie bet ween 50 and 70.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "45 to 75 are 3 standard deviations from the mean 60, and hence by the empirical rule, around 99.7% of all observations lie bet ween 45 and 75. \n" ); document.write( " |
