If the average weight for cats is 12 pounds and the standard deviation is
2 pounds, find -3 standard deviations
from the mean.

3 standard deviations

from the mean is 6 pounds to 18 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above question is solved using empirical rule

99.7% of data falls within 3 standard deviations from the mean - between μ - 3σ and μ + 3σ

From the above question

μ = 12 pounds

σ = 2 pounds

Hence:.

3 standard deviations from the mean is calculated as

μ - 3σ

[12 - 3(2)] pounds

=( 12 - 6) pounds

= 6 pounds

μ + 3σ

[12 + 3(2)] pounds

=( 12 + 6) pounds

= 18 pounds

Hence,3 standard deviations

from the mean is 6 pounds to 18 pounds.

over the argument its not good to fight.
