    Students exercise, on average, for one hour and 40 min per week. However, the standard deviation of the time they spend in sports is large, 20 minutes. These figures are calculated from a large-enough sample and the relevant variable is normally distributed. According to the Empirical Rule [–1–] of the observations lie between [–2–] minutes per week and [–3–] between [–4–] minutes per week.


    1. FALSE: [–1–] 68% [–2–] 9 and 33 [–3–] 95% [–4–] 80 and 120
    2. FALSE: [–1–] 90% [–2–] 80 and 120 [–3–] 95% [–4–] 60 and 140
    3. TRUE: [–1–] 68% [–2–] 80 and 120 [–3–] 95% [–4–] 60 and 140
    4. FALSE: [–1–] 50% [–2–] 80 and 120 [–3–] 68% [–4–] 70 and 130
