-99.7% -95% 68% The figure illustrates a normal distribution for the prices paid for a particular model of a new car. The mean is $13,000 and the standard deviation is $500. Use the 68-95-99.7 Rule to find the percentage of buyers who paid between $11,500 and $13,000. Number of Car Buyers 11.300 12.000 12.500 13.000 0.00 14.000 Price of a Model of a New Car 14.500 What percentage of buyers paid between $11,500 and $13,000?
Fuel economy estimates for automobiles built one year predicted a mean of 26.8 mpg and a standard deviation of 5.2 mpg for highway driving. Assume that a Normal model can be applied. Use the 68-95-99.7 Rule to complete parts a) through e) a) Draw the model for auto fuel economy. ОА. OC A A A 14 21 b) In what interval would you expect the central 95% of autos to be found? Using the 88-95-99.7 rule, the central 95% of...
-99.7% -95% Not everyone pays the same price for the same model of a car. The figure illustrates a normal distribution for the fc prices paid for a particular model of a new car. The mean is $18,000 and the O standard deviation is $2000. Use the 68-95-99.7 Rule to find what percentage of buyers paid between $14,000 and $22,000. 12 14 1618 20 2224 Price of a Model of a New Car (Thousands) The percentage of buyers who paid...
Grade percentages for STAT 302 students can be described using a bell-curve distribution with a mean of 82.7% and a standard deviation of 5.3%. (a) Using the 68-95-99.7 rule, what percent of students have grade percentages that are at least 93.3%? How do you solve this? (correct answer is 2.5%) (b) Using the 68-95-99.7 rule, about 50% of students have grade percentages less than what percent? How do you solve this? (correct answer is 82.7%)
2. Some IQ tests are standardized to a Normal model with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 16. a. What score would begin the interval for the top 16% of all scores? Use the Empircal Rule (68/95/99.7%) to find your answer. Validate this answer using the Z-scores table. b. The top 10% of all scores represent the label of "genius". What is the range of scores for anyone who qualifies as a genius? C. What proportion of...
In the last quarter of 2007, a group of 64 mutual funds had a mean return of 5.5% with a standard deviation of 6.1%. If a normal model can be used to model them, what percent of the funds would you expect to be in each region? Use the 68-95-99.7 rule to approximate the probabilities rather than using technology to find the values more precisely. Be sure to draw a picture first. a) Returns of 23.8% or more c) Returns...
In the last quarter of 2007, a group of 64 mutual funds had a mean return of 5.5% with a standard deviation of 7.7%. If a normal model can be used to model them, what percent of the funds would you expect to be in each region? Use the 68-95-99.7 rule to approximate the probabilities rather than using technology to find the values more precisely. Be sure to draw a picture first. a) Returns of negative 17.6% or less ...
100 7.62 Weights in kilograms of boys at the start of 1st grade are approximately normal with mean 25, standard deviation 5. Use the 68-95-99.7 Rule to estimate the following weights: a. The probability is 0.002 that a boy at the start of 1st grade is less than what weight? b. The probability is 0.12 that a boy at the start of 1st grade is more than what weight?
In the last quarter of 2007, a group of 64 mutual funds had a mean return of 2.9% with a standard deviation of 4.1%. If a normal model can be used to model them, what percent of the funds would you expect to be in each region? Use the 68-95-99.7 rule to approximate the probabilities rather than using technology to find the values more precisely. Be sure to draw a picture first. a) Returns of 7.0% or more b) Returns...
