The 68-95-99.7 rule tells us 68% of the probability is between -1 standard deviation and +1 standard deviation from the mean. So we expect 75% corresponds to slightly more than 1 standard deviation.

Usually the unit normal tables don't report the area between -σ and σ but instead a cumulative probability, the area between -∞ and σ. 75% corresponds to 37.5% in each half so a cumulative probability of 50%+37.5%=87.5%. We look that up in the normal table and get σ=1.15.

So we expect 75% of normally distributed data to fall within μ-1.15σ and μ+1.15σ

That's 288.6 - 1.15(21.2) to 288.6 + 1.15(21.2)

Answer: 264.22 to 312.98

Lelu [443]

Answer:

If both computers are working together, it will take 24 minutes to do the job

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

There are two computers.The slower computer can send all the company's email in 60 minutes.

The faster computer can complete the same job in 40 minutes

<u>To find the LCM of 40 and 60</u>

LCM (40, 60) = 120

<u>To find efficiency of 2 computers</u>

Let x be the efficiency of faster computer and y be the efficiency of faster computer

x = 120/40 = 3

y = 120/60 = 2

then, x + y = 3 + 2 = 5

Therefore efficiency of both the computer work together = x + y =5

<u>To find the time taken to work both the computer together</u>

time = 120/5 = 24 minutes
