Answer with explanation:A)Theempirical rulesays that the 95% of the data falls in between two standard deviations of the mean.Given :The distribution of widget weights is bell-shaped. i.e. the distribution is a normal distribution.Population mean :Standard deviation :Then, byempirical rule, 95% of data falls in betweeni.e.Hence, the 95% of the widget weights lie between 41 ounces and 73 ounces .B)Let x be the random variable that represents the weight of the widgets.Formula of Z-score :(1)Put x= 33 in (1)Put x= 73 in (1)Using the standard normal distribution table , we haveP-value :Hence, 97.59% of the widget weights lie between 33 and 73 ounces .C)Put x= 49in (1)P-value :Hence, 84.13% of the widget weights lie above 49....
