When Lillian goes bowling, her scores are normally distributed with a mean of 130
and a standard deviation of 11. Using the empirical rule, what percentage of the
games that Lillian bowls does she score between 119 and 141?

Respuesta :

Using the Empirical Rule, it is found that she scores between 119 and 141 on 68% of the games that she bowls.

What does the Empirical Rule state?

It 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, considering that the mean is of 130 and the standard deviation is of 11, the interval between 119 and 141 is within one standard deviation of the mean, hence she scores between 119 and 141 on 68% of the games that she bowls.
