Answer:

The estimation for the number of newborns who weighed between 1724 grams and 5172 grams is 595.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 3448, \sigma = 862$

Proportion of newborns who weighed between 1724 grams and 5172 grams.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5172 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1724. So

X = 5172

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{5172 - 3448}{862}$

$Z = 2$

$Z = 2$ has a pvalue of 0.9772

X = 1724

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{1724 - 3448}{862}$

$Z = -2$

$Z = -2$ has a pvalue of 0.0228

0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544

Estimate the number of newborns who weighed between 1724 grams and 5172 grams.

0.9544 out of 623 babies. SO

0.9544*623 = 595

The estimation for the number of newborns who weighed between 1724 grams and 5172 grams is 595.

Answer:

Yes, it is reasonable to expect that more than one subject will experience headaches

Explanation:

Notice that where it says "assume that 55 subjects are randomly selected ..." there is a typo. The correct statement is "assume that 5 subjects are randomly selected ..."

You are given the table with the probability distribution, assuming, correctly, the binomial distribution with n = 5 and p = 0.732.

p = 0.732 is the probability of success (an individual experiences headaches).
n = 5 is the number of trials (number of subjects in the sample).

The meaning of the table of the distribution probability is:

The probability that 0 subjects experience headaches is 0.0014; the probability that 1 subject experience headaches is 0.0189, and so on.

To answer whether it is reasonable to expect that more than one subject will experience headaches, you must find the probability that:

X = 2 or X = 3 or X = 4 or X = 5

That is:

P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5).

That is also the complement of P(X = 0) or P(X = 1)

1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

From the table:

P(X = 0) = 0.0014
P(X = 1) = 0.0189

Hence:

1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1) = 1 - 0.0014 - 0.0189 = 0.9797

That is very close to 1; thus, it is highly likely that more than 1 subject will experience headaches.

In conclusion, yes, it is reasonable to expect that more than one subject will experience headaches

Answer:

A=235 cm 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A1=L x W

A1=9 x 20 180 + 55=235

A1=180cm 2

A2= L x W

A2=11 x 5

A2=55 cm2

A lawyer charges for her services based on the number of hours worked. The expression gives the total cost for h hours is 200h+2

zhannawk [14.2K]

H is the number of hours worked. So the expression 200h+250 is 200 times the number of hours plus 250.

Here's a few computations using different values for h

1 hour --> (200)(1)+250 = 450
2 hours --> (200)(2) + 250 = 650
3 hours --> (200)(3)+250 = 850
10 hours --> (200)(10)+250 = 2250

As you can see the 250 is fixed. It gets added to the cost no matter how many hours the lawyer works. This is most likely a flat fee. Just to meet the lawyer you pay $250.

The 200 gets multiplied by the hours worked. So the 200 is an hourly rate. The more hours the lawyer works, the more he gets paid because this part of the expression depends on the hours worked.

Thus, an interpretation of the expression 200h + 250 is that the lawyer charges a fee of $250 per consultation and an additional $200 per hour on top of that.
