Using the Empirical Rule, it is found that:
- a) Approximately 99.7% of the amounts are between $35.26 and $51.88.
- b) Approximately 95% of the amounts are between $38.03 and $49.11.
- c) Approximately 68% of the amounts fall between $40.73 and $46.27.
------------
The Empirical Rule states that, in a <em>bell-shaped </em>distribution:
- Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
- Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
- Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
-----------
Item a:
Within <em>3 standard deviations of the mean</em>, thus, approximately 99.7%.
-----------
Item b:
Within 2<em> standard deviations of the mean</em>, thus, approximately 95%.
-----------
Item c:
- 68% is within 1 standard deviation of the mean, so:
Approximately 68% of the amounts fall between $40.73 and $46.27.

Answer:
I) |xz| ≈ 28.6 km
II) |yz| ≈ 34.8 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that the position of ship due south of x is z (aà pictor representation of the question is attached)
|xy| = 20 km, |xz| = ?, |yz| = ?, θ(y) = 55°
Using Trigonometric ratio - SOHCAHTOA
I) Tan θ = |xz| ÷ |xy| ⇒ Tan 55° = |xz| ÷ 20
|xz| = 20 * Tan 55 = 20 * 1.428
|xz| = 28.56 km
|xz| ≈ <u>28.6 km</u>
<u />
II) Cos θ = |xy| ÷ |yz| ⇒ Cos 55° = 20 ÷ |yz|
|yz| * Cos 55° = 20 ⇒ |yz| = 20 ÷ Cos 55°
|yz| = 20 ÷ 0.574 = 34.84 km
|yz| ≈ <u>34.8 km</u>
