Integers are whole numbers.

mixed number are whole numbers plus fractions...that when simplified, become improper fractions
2 1/2 = 5/2....this is not an integer or a whole number
3 1/4 = 13/4....same here...not an integer or a whole number
4 1/3 = 13/3...not an integer or a whole number

Lengths of full-term babies in the US are Normally distributed with a mean length of 20.5 inches and a standard deviation of 0.9

mash [69]

Answer:

66.48% of full-term babies are between 19 and 21 inches long at birth

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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.

Mean length of 20.5 inches and a standard deviation of 0.90 inches.

This means that $\mu = 20.5, \sigma = 0.9$
