Suppose that 12.5% of horses live over 23.4 years, while 88 8/9% live less than
25.2 years. What are the mean and standard deviation for the life expectancy of
horses?
Which is the correct answer?
mean = 20.14; standard deviation = 4.86
mean = 21.6 ; standard deviation = 1.8
mean = 22.69; standard deviation = 4.97
mean =
23.83; standard deviation = 0.22
