The problem tells us that the distribution of dates is mound‐shaped (roughly normal) and symmetric about the mean. In a normal distribution the empirical rule applies:

• About 68% of the data are within ±1 standard deviation of the mean.
• About 95% of the data are within ±2 standard deviations of the mean.
• Nearly all (about 99.7%) of the data are within ±3 standard deviations of the mean.

Thus, if we let µ be the mean and σ the standard deviation of the tree‐ring dates, the answers are:

a. About 68% of the tree‑ring dates will be found between µ – σ and µ + σ A.D.
b. About 95% will be found between µ – 2σ and µ + 2σ A.D.
c. Nearly all (≈99.7%) will be found between µ – 3σ and µ + 3σ A.D.

Enter these exact numbers (in terms of µ and σ) as your answer.
a. Between $$ \mu - \sigma $$ and $$ \mu + \sigma $$ A.D. b. Between $$ \mu - 2\sigma $$ and $$ \mu + 2\sigma $$ A.D. c. Between $$ \mu - 3\sigma $$ and $$ \mu + 3\sigma $$ A.D.
