He distribution of the amount of money spent by students for textbooks in a semester is approximately normal in shape with a mean of $235 and a standard deviation of $20. according to the standard deviation rule, how much did almost all (99.7%) of the students spend on textbooks in a semester?

The standard deviation rule tells us that for distributions that have the normal shape, approximately 99.7% of the observations fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Here, Mean = 235 and Standard deviation= 20

So, 3 standard deviation below the mean= Mean- 3 standard deviation

= 235 - (3× 20)

= 235 - 60 = 175

and 3 standard deviation above the mean= Mean + 3 standard deviation

= 235 + (3× 20)

= 235 + 60 = 295

So, almost all (99.7%) of the students spent between $175 and $295 on textbooks in a semester.

i think the answer is .36

step-by-step explanation:

what i did was only 2.88 divided by 8

i think is 3 and 6. this took me 10 min to think.hope to and hope that my answer is brainliest.(follow me )
