The first National Health and Nutrition Exam Survey reported that the average body mass index(BMI) in the 25 to 39 age group for

women was found to be 24 with a standard deviation of 5. If awoman from this age group is selected at random, what is the probability she has a BMI between 32and 35.Write your probability as a decimal rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.

the average body mass index (BMI) in the 25 to 39 age group for women was found to be 24 with a standard deviation of 5

From the above, we can obtain this information:

mean: μ = 24

standard deviation: σ = 5

Question

a woman from this age group is selected at random, what is the probability she has a BMI between 32 and 35.

P ( 32

In order to find P ( 32

First, we need to calculate z-value

Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(x<35)

Z=\frac{35-24}{5}=2.2

now, we can use a Z-score table to find the probability having the above z-value of 2.2

P(z<2.2) = 0.9861

Therefore, P(x<35) = 0.9861

P(x<32)

Z=\frac{32-24}{5}=1.6

Again, using the Z-score table, for a value of Z=1.6, the probability is

P(z<1.6) = 0.9452

Therefore, P(x<32) = 0.9452

Finally, we must solve P(x<35) - P(x<25) to find P(32this is: 0.9861 - 0.9452 = 0.0409

Which is the same as: P(1.6or P(32

In conclusion, the probability of selecting a woman with an IBM between 32 and 35 is P = 0.0409

Please Help!!!! 20 Points!!!!

Answer:

C and D

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the base of the bigger triangle is 6. Based on the straight sides adjacent to the hypotenuse, the bigger one's height is 6 and the smaller one's is 3. This means that the smaller one is half the size of the bigger one. This means that if the bigger base is 6, the smaller one is 3. Since it is 3, we move 3 spaces left from point Z to get point Y. If you moved 3 spaces left, it would be (-5,2). You can also move 3 spaces right and then your Y point would be at (1,2) so C and D are the 2 possible answers.
