Answer 1

Answer:

C. 11.60 ounces to 12.60 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

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.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean 12.10, standard deviation 0.25.

In which range will the amount of water dispensed be found 95% of the time?

By the Empirical Rule, within 2 standard deviations of the mean. So

12.10 - 2*0.25 = 12.10 - 0.5 = 11.60

12.10 + 2*0.25 = 12.10 + 0.5 = 12.6

So the correct answer is given by option C.
