The physical plant at the main campus of a large state university recieves daily requests to replace fluorescent lightbulbs. The distribution of the number of daily requests is bell-shaped and has a mean of 45 and a standard deviation of 3. Using the empirical rule, what is the approximate percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 42 and 45? Do not enter the percent symbol.
ans = %

34%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the distribution of daily light bulb request replacement is approximately bell shaped with ;

Mean , μ = 45 ; standard deviation, σ = 3

Using the empirical formula where ;

68% of the distribution is within 1 standard deviation from the mean ;

95% of the distribution is within 2 standard deviation from the mean

Lightbulb replacement numbering between ;

42 and 45

Number of standard deviations from the mean /

Z = (x - μ) / σ

(x - μ) / σ < Z < (x - μ) / σ

(42 - 45) / 3 = -1

This lies between - 1 standard deviation a d the mean :

Hence, the approximate percentage is : 68% / 2 = 34%

yes
