Answer: 68% of light bulbs last between 1765 hours and 1835 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical rule states that for a normal distribution, nearly all of the data will fall within three standard deviations of the mean . The empirical rule is further illustrated below

68% of data falls within the first standard deviation from the mean.

95% fall within two standard deviations.

99.7% fall within three standard deviations.

From the information given, the mean is 1800 hours and the standard deviation is 35 hours.

1 standard deviation = 1 × 35 = 35

1800 - 35 = 1765 hours

1800 + 35 = 1835 hours

Therefore, 68% of light bulbs last between 1765 hours and 1835 hours.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

42 minutes is the median amount of time

Step-by-step explanation:

The Median is the middle value of data set.

If there is "odd" number of numbers, and there are n numbers, the median is:

(n/2) + 1 th  number

If there is "even" number of numbers, and there are n numbers, the median is:

Average of n/2th and (n/2) + 1 th number

Here, we have 5 numbers, so the median would be:

(5/2) + 1 th number

That is

3rd number

But, we need to arrange the numbers from least to greatest. Lets write it:

19, 23, 42, 56, 67

The third number is 42, this is the median
