Question 1040202: Heights of men on a baseball team have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 167 cm and a standard deviation of 7cm. Using the empirical rule, what is the approximate percentage of the men between the following values?
A) 160 cm and 174 cm
B) 153 cm and 181 cm Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! a. This is +/- 1 standard deviation from the mean. That would encompass 68% of the data using the empirical rule.
b. This is +/- 2 SDs from the mean. That would encompass 95% of the data using the empirical rule.
