Suppose that the amount of time (in hours) that it takes for a phone to fully charge has a normal distribution with a mean of 5 hours and a standard deviation of 0.6 hours. 

a.Find the charging time interval in which 68% of the phones fall under.

b. Find the charging time interval in which 95% of the phones fall under. 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Empirical rules:1) P(μ-σ<X<μ+σ)=68%2) P(μ-2σ<X<μ+2σ)=95%3) P(μ-3σ<X<μ+3σ)=99.7%
