Porphyrin is a pigment in blood protoplasm and other body fluids that is significant in body energy and storage. Let x be a rand

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

<u>Question 1:</u>

<u>(a) </u>P(x<60) = 0.9236

<u>(b) </u>P(x>16) = 0.9564

<u>(c) </u>P(16<x<60) = 0.88

<u>(d) </u>P (x>60) = 0.0764

<u />

<u>Question 2:</u>

<u>(a) </u>P(x<3) = 0.0668

<u>(b) </u>P(x>7) = 0.0062

<u>(c) </u>P(3<x<7) = 0.927

<u />

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question 1:</u>

x = no. of mg of porphyrin per deciliter of blood.

μ = 40

σ = 14

(a) We need to compute P(x<60). We need to find the z-score using the normal distribution formula:

z = (x - μ)/σ

P(x<60) = P((x - μ)/σ < (60 - 40)/14)

= P(z < 20/14)

= P(z<1.43)

Using the normal distribution probability table we can find the value of p at z=1.43.

P(z<1.43) = 0.9236

so, P(x<60) = 0.9236

(b) P(x>16) = P(z>(16-40)/14)

= P(z>-1.71)

= 1 - P(z<-1.71)

= 1 - 0.0436

P(x>16) = 0.9564

(c) P(16<x<60) = P((16-40)/14) < x < (60-40)/14)

= P(-1.71 < z < 1.43)

This probability can be calculated as: P(z<1.43) - P(z<-1.71)

P(16<x<60) = 0.9236 - 0.0436

P(16<x<60) = 0.88

(d) P(x>60) = 1 - P(x<60)

we have calculated P(x<60) in part (a) so,

P(x>60) = 1 - 0.9236

P (x>60) = 0.0764

<u>Question 2:</u>

μ = 4.5 mm

σ = 1.0 mm

In this question, we will again compute the z-scores and then find the probability from the normal distribution table.

(a) P(x<3) = P(z<(3-4.5)/1)

= P(z<-1.5)

P(x<3) = 0.0668

(b) P(x>7) = 1 - P(x<7)

= 1 - P(z<(7-4.5)/1)

= 1 - P(z<2.5)

= 1 - 0.9938

P(x>7) = 0.0062

(c) P(3<x<7) = P(x<7) - P(x<3)

we have computed both of these probabilities in parts (a) and (b) so,

P(3<x<7) = 0.9938 - 0.0668

P(3<x<7) = 0.927

11. John puts a fence around his rectangular backyard. The width of his backyard is 10 feet. He

Lady_Fox [76]

Length = 20 ft

If he uses 60 ft of fencing to line his rectangular backyard, then the perimeter is 60 ft.

Perimeter formula is ((Width × 2) + (Length × 2))

10 × 2 = 20

20 × 2 = 40

40 + 20 = 60

Recall from Intermediate Algebra that two non-vertical lines are perpendicular if and only if they have negative reciprocal slop

OLEGan [10]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The line is $y = -4 x$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The line is $y = \frac{1}{4} x + 8$

The point is P(0,0 )

Generally the equation for a line is $yn = mx + c$

Now comparing this with the given equation we see that

$m =\frac{1}{4} = slope$

$C =8 = intercept$

Generally the slope of the perpendicular to the given line is mathematically evaluated as

$m_1 = - \frac{1}{m}$

=> $m_1 = - \frac{1}{ \frac{1}{4}}$

=> $m_1 = -4$

Generally from the univesal equation of a line and the given point we have that

y = mx + c at p(0,0) and $m_1 = -4$ is

0 = -4 (0 ) + c

=> c = 0

Hence the equation perpendicular to the line given at the point given is

$y = -4 x$

Evaluate ㏒ b 1, b > 0.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The solution is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Logarithm:

Suppose we have a logarithmic equation in the following format:

$\log_{a} b = c$

It means that:

$a_c = b$

In this question:

$\log_{b} 1 = x$

Which means that:

$b^x = 1$

Every number, elevated to 0, is 1. So

$b^0 = 1$

Which means that the solution is $x = 1$
