Question

At least ____ ​% of healthy adults have body temperatures within 22 standard deviations of 98.32degrees°F. ​(Round to the nearest percent as​ needed.)

Answer 1

95%

Explanation:

We are asked to find the percentage of healthy adults have body temperatures within 2 standard deviations of 98.32 degrees°F.

We will use Empirical rule of normal distribution to answer our given problem.

Empirical rule of normal distribution states that 68% of data falls within the first standard deviation from the mean. 95% of data fall within two standard deviations. 99.7% of data fall within three standard deviations.

Therefore, 95% of healthy adults have body temperatures within 2 standard deviations of 98.32 degrees°F.
