The distribution of the number of apples trees a farmer can plant each day is bell-shaped and has a mean of 62 and a standard deviation of 8. Use the empirical rule to help you answer the following. What is the approximate percentage of trees planted between 38 and 68

The empirical rule, the approximate percentage of trees planted between 38 and 68 is 99.7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 62, standard deviation of 8.

What is the approximate percentage of trees planted between 38 and 86?

38 = 62 - 3*8

86 = 62 + 3*8

So within 3 standard deviations of the mean, which, by the empirical rule, the approximate percentage of trees planted between 38 and 68 is 99.7%.

answer is : muchas/tipicas

have a nice day!
