The height, in inches, of a randomly chosen American woman is a normal random variable with mean μ = 64 and variance 2 = 7.84. (

a) Calculate the probability that the height of a randomly chosen woman is between 59.8 and 68.2 inches. (b) Given that a randomly chosen woman is tall enough to be an astronaut (i.e., at least 59 inches tall), what is the conditional probability that she is at least 67 inches in height? (c) Four women are chosen at random. Calculate the probability that their total height is at least 260 inches. (d) Suppose that Z ∼ N(0, 1). Prove that E(Z19) = 0.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the height in  inches, of a randomly chosen American woman is a normal random variable with mean μ = 64 and variance 2 = 7.84.

X is N(64, 2.8)

Or Z = \frac{x-64}{2.8}

a)  the probability that the height of a randomly chosen woman is between 59.8 and 68.2 inches.

=P(59.8

b) P(X\geq 59)\\= P(X\geq -1.78)\\ \\=0.9625

c) For 4 women to be height 260 inches is equivalent to

4x will be normal with mean (64*4) and std dev (2.8*4)

4x is N(266, 11.2)

P(4x>260)= \\P(Z\geq -0.53571)\\=0.7054

d) Z is N(0,1)

E(Z19) = P(Z>19)\\= 0.000

since normal distribution is maximum only between 3 std deviations form the mean on either side.

Use integer rules to evaluate: 85 + (-96) *
grin007 [14]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{ - 11}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{85 + ( - 96)}

Multiplying positive integer and negative integer gives a negative integer i.e ( + ) × ( - ) = ( - )

\longrightarrow{ \sf{85 - 96}}

The negative and positive integers are always subtracted but posses the sign of the bigger integer

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 11}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! : D

A circle has a diameter of 4 inches. A square has a side length of 4 inches. What is true about the areas of these two figures?
Nuetrik [128]
The area of the square is greater than the circle: the area of the circle is pi(r)^2 while the area of the square is length times width. The area of the circle is about 12.5 while the area of the square is 16.
