Answer:
42.22% probability that the weight is between 31 and 35 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
What is the probability that the weight is between 31 and 35 pounds
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 35 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 31. So
X = 35
has a pvalue of 0.5557
X = 31
has a pvalue of 0.1335
0.5557 - 0.1335 = 0.4222
42.22% probability that the weight is between 31 and 35 pounds
Answer:
The exponential model for the population is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential model for the population has the following format:
In which P(0) is the initial population and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.
A population numbers 19,000 organisms initially and grows by 4.8% each year.
This means that 
So
The exponential model for the population is
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well we can start by seeing if the parabola is the same width by comparing it to its parent function ( y = x^2 )
In y = x^2 the 2nd lowest point is just up 1 and right 1 away from the vertex.
This is not true for our parabola.
So we can widen it by to the desidered width by making the x^2 into a .5x^2.
So far we’ve got y = .5x^2
Now the parabola y intercept is at -5.
So we can add a -5 into the equation making it.
y = .5x^2 - 5
Now for the x value.
So we can find the x value by seeing how far away the parabola is from from the y axis.
So the x value is -2x.
So the full equation is
