The weights of cars passing over a Bridge have a mean of 3550 lb and a standard deviation of 870 lb. Assume that the weights of the cars passing over the bridge, Lee distributed. Use the empirical rule to estimate the percentage of the cars going over the bridge whose weights are more than 4420 lbs.

  a.  16%

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference from the mean is ...

  (x - µ) = 4420 lb -3550 lb = 870 lb

Then the minimum Z-score of the traffic of interest is ...

  (x - µ)/σ = (870 lb)/(870 lb) = 1

The "empirical rule" tells you that 68% of a normal distribution is within 1 σ (Z = ±1) of the mean. If 68% is inside that range, then the remaining 32% is outside that range. The normal distribution is symmetrical about the mean, so half that quantity is below Z = -1, and the other half, 16%, is above Z=1.

About 16% of the cars have weights more than 4420 pounds.

chase is right because he already been to the swings and he know how far it will be to get there

step-by-step explanation:

the car was traveling 40 mph before it started skidding. ( 2 points ) 17. was the driver were her brakes working at 75% efficiency or better? ( 2 points ) yes 29.
