Answer:

a) P(Z>2)

For this case we can use the normal standard table or excel and the complement rule and we got:

P(Z>2) =1-P(Z

b) P(Z

For this case we can use the normal standard table or excel and we got:

P(Z

c) P(-2

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let Z the random variable that represent the bone density scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

Z \sim N(0,1)  

Where \mu=0 and \sigma=1

We are interested on this probability

P(Z>2)

For this case we can use the normal standard table or excel and the complement rule and we got:

P(Z>2) =1-P(Z

Part b

We are interested on this probability

P(Z

For this case we can use the normal standard table or excel and we got:

P(Z

Part c: not significant​ (or less than 2 standard deviations away from the​ mean).

For this case we want this probability:

P(-2

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-2

. Osteen has 32 marbles in his collection. 18 of his marbles are red, four are blue, and the rest are
nalin [4]

Answer: B

Explanation:  

32 marbles in total.

18 red marbles

4 blue marbles

10 green marbles.

You are asked what part of Osteen's marbles are red?

Probability = number of possible outcomes/total number of out outcomes.

P(Red) = 18/32 = 9/16

Both, 18 and 32 are divisible by 2 which gives 9/16. Since 9/16 cannot be reduced any further, we live it as it is. If you wanted to plug this into a calculator that would give 0.5625 which is 56.25% of Osteen's marbles are red.

P(Blue) = 4/32 = 1/8. 1/8 = 0.125 which 12.5% of his marbles are blue.

P(Green) = 10/32 = 5/16. 5/16= 0.3125 which 31.25 of his marbles are green. When you add 0.5625 + 0.125 + 0.3125 = 1 which is 100%. All probabilities add up to 1.

Hope this elaborate explanation helps.

Answer:

Answer Below

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 2L+2W≥40

thats equal to 12+2W≥40 since it says the length is 6

That means 2W≥28

That means width ≥ 14

so the width can be 14 or greater

b. Smallest possible width is 14 because the inequality
