IQ scores for adult students age 25-45 have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.sing the Empirical Rule, what percentage of adult students age 25-45 have IQ scores between 70 and 130?

The Empirical Rule indicates that we can expect to find what proportion of the sample included within plus or and - 2 standard deviation?
The proportion is approx 95%.
What is chumlee's IQ?
My best estimate is around 1.5 standard deviations away from the norm.
Statistic question help?
When using Chebyshev's Theorem the minimum percentage of sample observations that will fall within two standard deviations of the mean will be __________ the percentage within two standard deviations if a normal distribution is assumed Empirical Rule smaller than greater than the same as
In statistics what does the empirical rule states?
Nearly all the values in a sample from a normal population will lie within three standard deviations of the mean. Please see the link.

What is the empirical rule for 1 and 2 standard deviations?
The empirical rule is 68 - 95 - 99.7. 68% is the area for +/- 1 standard deviation (SD) from the mean, 95% is the area for +/- 2 SD from the mean; and 99.7% is the area for +/- 3 SD from the mean.

What are the differences between the Emperical Rule and Chebyshev's Theorem?
The Empirical Rule applies solely to the NORMAL distribution, while Chebyshev's Theorem (Chebyshev's Inequality, Tchebysheff's Inequality, Bienaymé-Chebyshev Inequality) deals with ALL (well, rather, REAL-WORLD) distributions. The Empirical Rule is stronger than Chebyshev's Inequality, but applies to fewer cases. The Empirical Rule: - Applies to normal distributions. - About 68% of the values lie within one standard deviation of the mean. - About 95% of the values lie within two standard deviations of the mean. - About 99.7% of the values lie within three standard deviations of the mean. - For more precise values or values for another interval, use a normalcdf function on a calculator or integrate e^(-(x - mu)^2/(2*(sigma^2))) / (sigma*sqrt(2*pi)) along the desired interval (where mu is the population mean and sigma is the population standard deviation). Chebyshev's Theorem/Inequality: - Applies to all (real-world) distributions. - No more than 1/(k^2) of the values are more than k standard deviations away from the mean. This yields the following in comparison to the Empirical Rule: - No more than [all] of the values are more than 1 standard deviation away from the mean. - No more than 1/4 of the values are more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean. - No more than 1/9 of the values are more than 3 standard deviations away from the mean. - This is weaker than the Empirical Rule for the case of the normal distribution, but can be applied to all (real-world) distributions. For example, for a normal distribution, Chebyshev's Inequality states that at most 1/4 of the values are beyond 2 standard deviations from the mean, which means that at least 75% are within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The Empirical Rule makes the much stronger statement that about 95% of the values are within 2 standard deviations of the mean. However, for a distribution that has significant skew or other attributes that do not match the normal distribution, one can use Chebyshev's Inequality, but not the Empirical Rule. - Chebyshev's Inequality is a "fall-back" for distributions that cannot be modeled by approximations with more specific rules and provisions, such as the Empirical Rule.
What is the sum of the deviations from the mean?
The sum of standard deviations from the mean is the error.
What does normality mean in health and social care?
All minor deviations occurring with two standard deviations under the Gaussian curve are considered normal. Deviations occurring outside of two standard deviations are considered abnormal.
In a standard normal distribution 95 percent of the data is within plus standard deviations of the mean?
95% is within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
