The Mayo Clinic recommends that adults sleep 8 hours per night. 79 randomly selected college students were asked how many hours they slept the previous night, and the distribution of their responses was bell shaped with a mean of 7 hours and a standard deviation of 2.1 hours. Use the Empirical Rule to answer the following questions. a) 68% of the students slept between hours and hours per night. b) 95% of the students slept between hours and hours per night. c) 99,7% of the students slent between
