The time it takes to drive from Orangeville to the Vaughan Mills Mall is normally distributed with a mean of 52 minutes and standard deviation of 5 minutes. What intervals could you estimate, using the knowledge from this activity that do not include the mean as a max or min? For example, is an interval we could estimate? However, it includes the mean as the maximum of the interval. Another example is as an example of a probability interval that we know from this activity, but it includes the mean as the minimum.

Given:

Mean of 52 minutes and a standard deviation of 5 minutes.

Solution:

According to the empirical rule: For the normal distribution, all of the data will fall within three standard deviations of the mean.

1: 68% of the data will fall within the first standard deviation from the mean.

2: 95% of the data fall within two standard deviations.

3: 99.7% of the data fall within three standard deviations.

Therefore, the 7 intervals and their probabilities are:

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:

18.75 gallons
