Newborn babies: A study conducted by the Center for Population Economics at the University of Chicago studied the birth weights
Fed [463]

Answer:

a) 615

b) 715

c) 344

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

  • Given that,  A study conducted by the Center for Population Economics at the University of Chicago studied the birth weights of 732 babies born in New York. The mean weight was 3311 grams with a standard deviation of 860 grams

  • Since the distribution is approximately bell-shaped, we can use the normal distribution and calculate the Z scores for each scenario.

Z = (x - mean)/standard deviation

Now,

For x = 4171,  Z = (4171 - 3311)/860 = 1  

  • P(Z < 1) using Z table for areas for the standard normal distribution, you will get 0.8413.

Next, multiply that by the sample size of 732.

  • Therefore 732(0.8413) = 615.8316, so approximately 615 will weigh less than 4171  

 

  • For part b, use the same method except x is now 1591.    

Z = (1581 - 3311)/860 = -2    

  • P(Z > -2) , using the Z table is 1 - 0.0228 = 0.9772 . Now 732(0.9772) = 715.3104, so approximately 715 will weigh more than 1591.

 

  • For part c, we now need to get two Z scores, one for 3311 and another for 5031.

Z1 = (3311 - 3311)/860 = 0

Z2 = (5031 - 3311)/860= 2  

P(0 ≤ Z ≤ 2) = 0.9772 - 0.5000 = 0.4772

  approximately 47% fall between 0 and 1 standard deviation, so take 0.47 times 732 ⇒ 732×0.47 = 344.

Find two numbers whos diffrence is 16 and the product is 720
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

the numbers who's difference is 16 and the product is 720 is

36 &20

Explanation:

to finding numbers you have to express the equation in a quadratic equation then Factor it.

since the two numbers have a difference of 16 you can say that the first number is x and the second number is x -16 then their product is 720.

x(x-16)=720

x²-16x=720

x²-16x-720=0

(x-36)(x+20)

there are two possible value of x but since you are looking for the positive value of x, choose the positive value of x the first number is 20.

To find the second number

x-16=20

x=20+16

x=36

the second number is 36
