Suppose that grade point averages of undergraduate students at one university have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 2.55 and a standard deviation of 0.43. Using the empirical rule, what percentage of the students have grade point averages that are between 2.12 and 2.98?

It would take her 20 minutes.

Look, when you want to do something like put it like x^2. x2 could mean x² or x₂. so to clear confusion, know the notation. to find the product multiply the x's and you get -8x and the y's and you get 6y. since it's all being multiplied it is just -8x6y, or answer a. although the better answer is -48xy(combining -8 and 6) because you should multiply constants whenever you can.
