Respuesta :

Answer:

B) 8.9 lbs

C) 9.5 lbs

D) 9.8 lbs

E) 10.4 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, 9.5 is the mean of the sample and 0.5 is the standard deviation of the sample.

As we have to find the weights that lie within the 2 standard deviations of the mean i.e

[tex]=9.5\pm 2(0.5)[/tex]

[tex]=8.5,10.5[/tex]

Among the given weights only 8.9 lbs, 9.5 lbs, 9.8 lbs, 10.4 lbs will lie within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
