Let the lengths of pregnancies be X
X follows normal distribution with mean 268 and standard deviation 15 days
z=(X-269)/15

a. P(X>308)
z=(308-269)/15=2.6
thus:
P(X>308)=P(z>2.6)
=1-0.995
=0.005

b] Given that if the length of pregnancy is in lowest is 44%, then the baby is premature. We need to find the length that separates the premature babies from those who are not premature.
P(X<x)=0.44
P(Z<z)=0.44
z=-0.15
thus the value of x will be found as follows:
-0.05=(x-269)/15
-0.05(15)=x-269
-0.75=x-269
x=-0.75+269
x=268.78
The length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature is 268.78 days

h(x)= \dfrac{1}{8} x^3 - x^2h(x)= 8 1 ​ x 3 −x 2 h, left parenthesis, x, right parenthesis, equals, start fraction, 1, divided b
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

\dfrac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function h(x)=\dfrac{1}{8}x^3-x^2

The average rate of change of the function h(x) over the interval a\le x\le b can be calculated using formula

\dfrac{h(b)-h(a)}{b-a}

In your case,

a=-2,\\ \\b=2,

so the average rate of change is

\dfrac{h(2)-h(-2)}{2-(-2)}\\ \\=\dfrac{(\frac{1}{8}\cdot 2^3-2^2)-(\frac{1}{8}\cdot (-2)^3-(-2)^2)}{4}\\ \\=\dfrac{(1-4)-(-1-4)}{4}\\ \\=\dfrac{-3+5}{4}\\ \\=\dfrac{2}{4}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{2}
