Question 849718
A study of health care recorded the number of visits to a physician made by a person in a year. The 
probability distribution of the random variable x is shown below: 
Visits::::::: 0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9  10  11  12
Probability .10 .08 .06 .08 .12 .13 .12 .10 .09 .06 .03 .02 .01 

The mean is 4.89 and the standard deviation is 3. 
What is the probability that a person makes a number of visits to a physician that is within 1 standard deviation of the mean?
--------
Visits range: 
lower limit 4.89-3 = 1.89
upper limit 4.89+3 = 7.89
-----------
Percent within that visit interval: 
0.06+0.08+0.12+0.13+0.12+0.10 = 0.51 = 51%
