Answer

approximate 68% of the population fall in [66,98] when k=1 approximate 95% of the population fall in [50,114] when k = 2 approximate 99.7% of the population fall in [34,130] when k = 3

Work Step by Step

Interval: x`+-1s = 82+- 1(16) = [66,98] x`+-2s = 82+- 2(16) = [50,114] x`+-3s = 82+- 3(16) = [34,130]
