The body temperatures of a group of healthy adults have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 98.19degreesF and a standard deviation of 0.61degreesF. Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures within 3 standard deviations of the mean, or between 96.36degreesF and 100.02degreesF? b. What is the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.97degreesF and 99.41degreesF?

a) From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data so then that would be the answer for this case.

b)

And within 2 deviations from the mean we have 95% of the values.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that the distribution of the temperatures have the following parameters:

Part a

From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data so then that would be the answer for this case.

Part b

We can calculate the number of deviations from the mean with the z score with this formula:

And using this formula we got:

And within 2 deviations from the mean we have 95% of the values.

answer: i would say b

step-by-step explanation:

with the way the question is worded, i believe b is the answer

the cost of the apple depends on the weight

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
