(a) Compute the population standard deviation.
sigma equalsσ=nothing
beats per minute
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
(b) Determine the sample standard deviation of the following three simple random samples of size 3
Sample 1: {Kevin, Crystal, Jeff}
Sample 2: {Janette, Perpectual, Tammy}
Sample 3: {Katht, Crystal, Perpectual}
The sample standard deviation, s, of sample 1, {Kevin, Crystal, Jeff} is beats per minute
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
The sample standard deviation, s, of sample 2, {Janette, Perpectual, Tammy} is beats per minute
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
The sample standard deviation, s, of sample 3, {Katht, Crystal, Perpectual} is beats per minute
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
2, Scores of an IQ test have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 19. Use the empirical rule to determine the following.
(a) What percentage of people has an IQ score between 43 and 157?
(b) What percentage of people has an IQ score of less than 81 or greater than 119?
(c) What percentage of people has an IQ score greater than 119?
(a) % (Type an integer or a decimal.)
3,
At one point the average price of regular unleaded gasoline was $3.65 per gallon. Assume that the standard deviation price per gallon is $0.08 per gallon and use Chebyshev's inequality to answer the following
.(a) What percentage of gasoline stations had prices within 2 standard deviations of the mean?
(b) What percentage of gasoline stations had prices within 2.5 standard deviations of the mean? What are the gasoline prices that are within 2.5 standard deviations of the mean?
(c) What is the minimum percentage of gasoline stations that had prices between $3.33 and $3.97?
(a) At least % of gasoline stations had prices within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
