I don't know, what did the policeman shout to the math professor as a mob of excited calculus students crowded around these displays on his graphing calculator?
Answer:
The standard deviation of car age is 2.17 years.
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.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 7.5
(a) If 99.7% of the ages are between 1 year and 14 years, what is the standard deviation of car age?
This means that 1 is 3 standard deviations below the mean and 14 is 3 standard deviations above the mean.
So

I want to find 



The standard deviation of car age is 2.17 years.
Hey there!
The easiest way I could think to do this is by converting your mixed number to an improper fraction and multiplying the fraction by 2, or 2 over 1.


To multiply fractions, you can just multiply the numerators and denominators and simplify, if applicable.

Since you can't simplify this fraction in its improper form, just convert it back into a mixed number.

So, your answer will be

.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
