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?
An empirical rule indicates a probability distribution function for a variable which is based on repeated trials.

The number of potholes inThe number of potholes in any given 1 mile stretch of freeway pavement in Pennsylvania has a bell-shaped distribution. This distribution has a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 9.

Yes, except that if you know that the distribution is uniform there is little point in using the empirical rule.
No.The empirical rule is a good estimate of the spread of the data given the mean and standard deviation of a data set that follows the normal distribution.If you you have a data set with 10 values, perhaps all 10 the same, you clearly cannot use the empirical rule.
The empirical rule can only be used for a normal distribution, so I will assume you are referring to a normal distribution. Chebyshev's theorem can be used for any distribution. The empirical rule is more accurate than Chebyshev's theorem for a normal distribution. For 2 standard deviations (sd) from the mean, the empirical rule says 95% of the data are within that, and Chebyshev's theorem says 1 - 1/2^2 = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4 or 75% of the data are within that. From the standard normal distribution chart, the answer for 2 sd from the mean is 95.44% So, as you can see the empirical rule is more accurate.

Approx 95% of the observations.
inductive reasoning is self propagation and self establishedinductive reasoning starts with empirical observations of specific phenomena, then establishes a general rule to fit the observed facts.deductive reasoning starts with a general rule, then applies that rule to a specific instance.
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.
