Math Problem Statement
The body temperatures of a group of healthy adults have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 98.27degreesF and a standard deviation of 0.65degreesF. Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures within 2 standard deviations of the mean, or between 96.97degreesF and 99.57degreesF? b. What is the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.32degreesF and 100.22degreesF? Question content area bottom Part 1 a. Approximately enter your response here% of healthy adults in this group have body temperatures within 2 standard deviations of the mean, or between 96.97degreesF and 99.57degreesF.
