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

Find the common ratio r for the geometric sequence, and use r to find the next 3 terms n 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 f(n) 1,4,16,64
mote1985 [20]

Divide the given terms:

4/1 = 4

16/4 = 4

64/16 = 4

R = 4

The next term is the previous term multiplied by 4.

64 x 4 = 256

256 x 4 = 1024

1024 x 4 = 4096

The next three terms are: 256, 1024, 4096
