Answer:

4.87

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given situation, for calculation of standard deviation for the number of people first we need to calculate the variance which is shown below:-

Variance is

np(1 - p)\\\\ = 500\times (0.05)\times (1 - 0.05)

After solving the above equation we will get

= 23.75

Now the standard deviation is

= \sqrt{\sigma} \\\\ = \sqrt{23.75}

= 4.873397172

or

= 4.87

Therefore for computing the standard variation we simply applied the above formula.

matrenka [14]

To answer (a), we will need to find the Z value for 710 hours and 990 hours.

\begin{gathered} For\text{ 710} \\ Z\text{ = }\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\ \text{    = }\frac{710-850}{70} \\ \text{    = -2} \\ p\text{ =0.0228 } \\ For\text{ 990:} \\ Z\text{ = }\frac{990-850}{70} \\ \text{ =2} \\ p\text{ = 0.9772} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} To\text{ find P \lparen–2 \le Z \le 2\rparen} \\ =\text{ 0.9772 -0.0228} \\ =\text{ 0.9544} \\ =95.44\% \end{gathered}

B) 68% of data lies between one standard deviation of the mean.

850 +70 = 920

850 - 70 = 780
