The average height of corn stalks in a field is 71 inches with a standard deviation of 4.3 inches. Sketch a normal curve labeling the horizontal axis at one, two, and three standard deviations from the mean.

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical rules states that for a normal distribution, 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation from the mean, 95% falls within two standard deviation from the mean and 99.7% falls within three standard deviations from the mean.

Given that:

mean (μ) = 71 inches, standard deviation (σ) = 4.3 inches

One standard deviation = μ ± σ = 71 ± 4.3 = (66.7, 75.3)

Two standard deviation = μ ± 2σ = 71 ± 2*4.3 = (62.4, 79.6)

Three standard deviation = μ ± 3σ = 71 ± 3*4.3 = (58.1, 83.9)

The graph is attached

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.
