the histogram of numbers of brothers and sisters in a family (sibs) of a sample of 1,414
Figure 1

a. Can we standardise from this distribution, then apply the law of three sigmas? Explain why?
b. Assume that the distribution in Figure 1 is FOR A POPULATION, which follows the normal
distribution. What is the probability of a randomly selected person who has the number of brothers
and sisters less than 2?
