To study bonding between mothers and infants, a researcher places each mother and her infant in a playroom and has the mother leave for 10 minutes. The researcher records crying time in the sample of infants during this time that the mother was not present and finds that crying time is normally distributed with
M = 5
and
SD = 1.2.
Based on the empirical rule, state the range of crying times within 68% of infants cried, 95% of infants cried, and 99.7% of infants cried.
(a) 68% of infants cried
to min
(b) 95% of infants cried
to min
(c) 99.7% of infants cried
to min
Given that, mean = M = 5 and standard deviation = SD = 1.2
According to Empirical rule,
i) Approximately 68% of the data fall within 1 standard deviations of the mean.
(mean - sd = 5 - 1.2 = 3.8 and mean + sd = 5 + 1.2 = 6.2)
ii) Approximately 95% of the data fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
(mean - 2sd = 5 - (2 * 1.2) = 2.6 and mean + 2sd = 5 + (2 * 1.2) = 7.4)
iii) Approximately 99.7% of the data fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
(mean - 3sd = 5 - (3 * 1.2) = 1.4 and mean + 3sd = 5+ (3 * 1.2) = 8.6)
Therefore,
a) 68% of infants cried 3.8 to 6.2 min.
b) 95% of infants cried 2.6 to 7.4 min.
c) 99.7% of infants cried 1.4 to 8.6 min.

Question 3 A researcher is interested in the relationship between the birth weights of infants and mothers' smoking habits. He uses the birth weight of an infant (ounces) and the average number of cigarettes the mother smokes per day during the pregnancy as the dependent and independent variables, y and x, respectively. Using a sample of size (1388 the following model is obtained by the method of least squares: y-119.770.514.x (3.15) (0.13) SE e the figures in brackets are the...
Question 12 pts The length of time a person takes to decide which shoes to purchase is normally distributed with a mean of 8.21 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.90. Find the probability that a randomly selected individual will take less than 6 minutes to select a shoe purchase. Is this outcome unusual? Group of answer choices Probability is 0.88, which is usual as it is greater than 5% Probability is 0.12, which is usual as it is not...
