Answer:
a. 0.0582 = 5.82% probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute.
b. 0.1762 = 17.62% probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute.
c. 0.7656 = 76.56% probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Empirical Rule:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean:
(95% of data) range from 19 to 75 beats per minute.
This means that between 19 and 75, by the Empirical Rule, there are 4 standard deviations. So
a. What is the probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 25. So
has a p-value of 0.0582.
0.0582 = 5.82% probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute.
b. What is the probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute?
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 60. So
has a p-value of 0.8238.
1 - 0.8238 = 0.1762
0.1762 = 17.62% probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute.
c. What is the probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 60 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 25. From the previous two items, we have these two p-values. So
0.8238 - 0.0582 = 0.7656
0.7656 = 76.56% probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Range goes from the lowest point on a graph to the highest point, not including anything in between those 2 extremes. We will evaluate the quadratic for the values given. First f(2):
so
f(2) = -1
Now, f(4):
so
f(4) = 11
Now, f(7):
so
f(7) = 44
The lowest y value is -1 and the highest is 44, so the range is from -1 to 44 (I can't tell which of your choices reflects that because it's too small!)
Explanation:
Each row in Pascal's triangle is a listing of the values of nCk = n!/(k!(n-k)!) for some fixed n and k in the range 0 to n. nCk is <em>the number of combinations of n things taken k at a time</em>.
If you consider what happens when you multiply out the product (a +b)^n, you can see where the coefficients nCk come from. For example, consider the cube ...
(a +b)^3 = (a +b)(a +b)(a +b)
The highest-degree "a" term will be a^3, the result of multiplying together the first terms of each of the binomials.
The term a^b will have a coefficient that reflects the sum of all the ways you can get a^b by multiplying different combinations of the terms. Here they are ...
- (a +_)(a +_)(_ +b) = a·a·b = a^2b
- (a +_)(_ +b)(a +_) = a·b·a = a^2b
- (_ +b)(a +_)(a +_) = b·a·a = a^2b
Adding these three products together gives 3a^2b, the second term of the expansion.
For this cubic, the third term of the expansion is the sum of the ways you can get ab^2. It is essentially what is shown above, but with "a" and "b" swapped. Hence, there are 3 combinations, and the total is 3ab^2.
Of course, there is only one way to get b^3.
So the expansion of the cube (a+b)^3 is ...
(a +b)^3 = a^3 + 3a^2b +3ab^2 +b^3 . . . . . with coefficients 1, 3, 3, 1 matching the 4th row of Pascal's triangle.

In short, the values in Pascal's triangle are the values of the number of combinations of n things taken k at a time. The coefficients of a binomial expansion are also the number of combinations of n things taken k at a time. Each term of the expansion of (a+b)^n is of the form (nCk)·a^(n-k)·b^k for k =0 to n.
