Answer:
The interval [32.6 cm, 45.8 cm]
Step-by-step explanation:
According with the <em>68–95–99.7 rule for the Normal distribution:</em> If is the mean of the distribution and s the standard deviation, around 68% of the data must fall in the interval
around 95% of the data must fall in the interval
around 99.7% of the data must fall in the interval
So, the range of lengths that covers almost all the data (99.7%) is the interval
[39.2 - 3*2.2, 39.2 + 3*2.2] = [32.6, 45.8]
<em>This means that if we measure the upper arm length of a male over 20 years old in the United States, the probability that the length is between 32.6 cm and 45.8 cm is 99.7%</em>
