Answer:

the middle 50% of most lengths of pregnancies ranges between 255.62 days and 274.38 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean  = 265

standard deviation = 14

The formula for calculating the z score is z = \dfrac{x -\mu}{\sigma}

x = μ + σz

At middle of 50% i.e 0.50

The critical value for z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.50/2}

From standard normal table

z_{0.25}= + 0.67  or -0.67  

So; when z = -0.67

x = μ + σz

x = 265 + 14(-0.67)

x = 265 -9.38

x = 255.62

when z = +0.67

x = μ + σz

x = 265 + 14 (0.67)

x = 265 + 9.38

x = 274.38

the middle 50% of most lengths of pregnancies ranges between 255.62 days and 274.38 days

What is the value of x in the rhombus below?
Maurinko [17]
Look into my attachment

in rhombus ABCD, ∠AOB = 90°

Look at ΔAOB
the sum of inner angles = 180°
∠BAO + ∠AOB + ∠ABO = 180°
2x + 1 + 90 + 2x + 5 = 180°
4x + 96 = 180
4x = 84
x = 21
