Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN: The weight, in pounds, of a newborn baby 
months after birth can be modeled by the function 
.
TO FIND: What is the y-intercept of the function and what is its interpretation in the context of the problem.
SOLUTION:
in
if 
Hence y-intercept is
the y-intercept in this represents the weight of baby just after he is born.
Hey there!
In order to find if a fraction would result in a repeating decimal, recall that a fraction is a division problem written vertically. All that you have to do is divide the numerator by the denominator. Also, remember that a repeating decimal will result in the same number after the decimal point as long as the calculator can handle.
3 ÷ 4 = 0.75
1 ÷ 9 = 0.11111111...
5 ÷ 11 = 0.45454545...
3 ÷ 0.42857143...
As you can see, two out of your four answer choices give you a repeating decimal. B gives you a repeated number of "1" while C gives you "45". D doesn't count since there is no pattern of repeated numbers that it follows.
Both B and C fall into the category of repeating decimal. If you're only able to choose one answer, I would ask your teacher, a parent, or a peer what they think.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
Answer:
3.84% probability that it has a low birth weight
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:
If we randomly select a baby, what is the probability that it has a low birth weight?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 2500. So
has a pvalue of 0.0384
3.84% probability that it has a low birth weight
Answer:
2.807
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to make comparisons between two numbers we use ratios.
Ratios can be written as fraction, with a colon or with the word to.
The ratio 52,853:18,827 or
52,853/18,827 = 2.807
