Need help understanding these statistic problems with mean and standard deviation
These problems are highly confusing to me. I feel like there’s supposed to be a chart, but I can’t figure out which chart I’m looking for because my book has so many and my teacher did not give us the page number for these specific problems. I’m not asking anyone to solve them, just an explanation or the chart!
