a
Weekly wages at a certain factory are
normally distributed with a mean of
$400 and a standard deviation of $50.
Find the probability that a worker
selected at random makes between
$250 and $300.
Answer using the 68 - 95 - 99.7 rule.
[ ? ]%
Since 400 is the mean and the standard deviation is 50, $400-$450 is +1 standard deviation. One standard deviation is 34.1% probability that the worker's wages would fall in this range.
