Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
a. Find the standardized score (z-score), relative to all U.S. births, for a baby with a birth length of 45 cm.
Here, we use . So
b. Find the standardized score of a birth length of 45 cm. for babies born one month early, using 47.4 as the mean.
Here, we use . So
c. For which group is a birth length of 45 cm more common?
For each group, the probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z.
Z = -2.88 has a lower pvalue than Z = -0.96, so for Z = -2.88 the probability 1 - pvalue of Z will be greater. This means that for 40 weeks gestation babies a birth length of 45 cm is more common.
first we try to semplify as much as possible the fractions.
First we decompose the numbers
789 = 3 * 263
548 = 2 * 2 * 137 = 2^2
they have nothing in common, so the first fraction remains so
89 = 89 (prime number)
887 = 887 (prime number)
they have nothing in common, so the second one remains so
688 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 43 = 2^4 * 43
8724 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 727 = 2^2 * 3 * 727
they have 2^2 (=4) in common, so the numerator and the denominator can be devided by 4
so:
now we calculate the common denominator
take the scomposition:
548 = 2^2 * 137
887 = 887
2181 = 3 * 727
take every number one time
so the common denominator is 2^2 * 137 * 887 * 727 * 3 = 1'060'131'756
now calculate every single numerator: first we divide each denominator by the common denominator, then we moltiply the result with each numerator
first fraction: 789/548
1060131756 / 548 = 1934547
1934547 * 789 = 1526357583
second fraction: 89/887
1060131756 / 887 = 1195188
1195188 * 89 = 106371732
third one: 172/2181
1060131756 / 2181 = 486076
486076 * 172 = 83605072
now we can delete the common denominator
1526357583x - 106371732 = 83605072
solve it
1526357583x = 83605072 + 106371732
1526357583x = 189976804
x = 1526357583 / 189976804
decompose
1526357583 = 887 * 3 * 3 * 727 * 263
189976804 = 137 * 2 * 2 * 211 * 53 * 31
nothing in common
x = 1526357583 / 189976804
