Answer:
a) 279 b)254
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean = 269 days
standard deviation = 8 days
let n be the pregnancy lenght.
using normal distribution formula
z = (n – mean)/ standard deviation
n = z * standard deviation + mean
Now, z values for the top 12% has to be found using a z table.
The top 12% means 88% of area under the curve. In this case z = 1,176
n = 1,176 * 8 + 269
n = 278.4 = 279
The bottom 3% means 97% of area under the curve. In this case z = -1,882
n = -1,882 * 8 + 269
n = 253.94 = 254
All the possible combinations are
1-1 2-1 3-1 4-1 5-1 6-1
1-2. 2-2 3-2 4-2. 5-2. 6-2
1-3 2-3. 3-3. 4-3. 5-3. 6-3
1-4. 2-4. 3-4. 4-4. 5-4. 6-4
1-5. 2-5. 3-5. 4-5. 5-5. 6-5
1-6. 2-6. 3-6. 4-6. 5-6. 6-6
What is the total for each roll?
2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8
4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9
5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.
7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12
What roll occurs most often?
>>>>>>7<<<<<
7 occurs in 6 out of 36 possible outcomes
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Volume = 18 x 19 x 36 = 12312 in³
Answer: 12312 in³
