25. Survival Times, continued Refer to Exercise 24.

Use the Empirical Rule to see why the distribution of survival times could not be mound-shaped.

a. Find the value of x that is exactly one standard deviation below the mean.

b. If the distribution is in fact mound-shaped, approximately what percentage of the measurements should be less than the value of x found in part a?

c. Since the variable being measured is time, is it possible to find any measurements that are more than one standard deviation below the mean?

d. Use your answers to parts b and c to explain why the data distribution cannot be mound-shaped.
