# Three sigma rule

The height of trees in a given stand is known to be a quantity with a normal probability distribution with a mean value of 15 m and a variance of 5 m2. Determine the interval in which there will be tree heights in such a stand with a probability of 90%

x1 =  11.334
x2 =  18.666

### Step-by-step explanation:

${x}_{2}=m+s=15+3.666=18.666$
