A) What percentage of the area under the normal curve lies to the left of μ? % (b) What percentage of the area under the normal curve lies between μ − σ and μ + σ? % (c) What percentage of the area under the normal curve lies between μ − 3σ and μ + 3σ? %

a) 50%

b) 68%

c) 99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

The normal distribution is also symmetric, which means that 50% of the measures are below the mean and 50% are above.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean μ

Standard deviation σ

Area under the normal curve = percentage

a) What percentage of the area under the normal curve lies to the left of μ?

Normal distribution is symmetric, so the answer is 50%.

(b) What percentage of the area under the normal curve lies between μ − σ and μ + σ?  

Within 1 standard deviation of the mean, so 68%.

(c) What percentage of the area under the normal curve lies between μ − 3σ and μ + 3σ?

Within 3 standard deviation of the mean, so 99.7%.

80π/3 or about 83.775

step-by-step explanation:

since a cone is 1/3 of a cylinder, we need to find the base's area. since area = πr^2, we get 16π. then, multiplying this by 5, we get 80π. dividing by 3, since the cone's volume is 1/3 of that of a cylinder's, we get 80π/3.

hope this !
