Suppose, household color TVs are replaced at an average age of
(a) The empirical rule indicates that for a symmetric and bell-shaped distribution, approximately 95% of the data lies within two standard deviations of the mean. Therefore, a 95% range of data values extending from
Estimating the standard deviation
For a symmetric, bell-shaped distribution,
where it is estimated that about 95% of the commonly occurring data values fall into this range.
Use this "rule of thumb" to approximate the standard deviation of x values, where x is the age (in years) at which a color TV is replaced. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
(b) What is the probability that someone will keep a color TV more than 5 years before replacement? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
(c) What is the probability that someone will keep a color TV fewer than 10 years before replacement? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Step 1
From the given information,
Let x be the age (in years) at which a color TV is replaced and x has a distribution that is approximately normal.
Step 2
a. According to range rule the standard deviation is approximately equal to one fourth of the range of the data so,
Whereas,
Thus. Standard deviation
Step 3
b. The probability that someone will keep a color TV more than 5 years before replacement can be computed as:
Thus,
Step 4
c. The probability that someone will keep a color TV fewer than 10 years before replacement is
