Let X be the birth weight for twins which is normally distributed with mean μ = 2353 and standard deviation σ =647

Any z score value below -2 and above 2 is considered to e unusual. If the z score values lies between -2 and 2 then it is said to usual.

To find unusual birth weight first we will find z score for each x value. The x value with z score less than -2 or greater than 2 is said to be unusual.

a. x=1200

z = \frac{x-mena}{standard deviation}

z = \frac{1200-2353}{647}

z = -1.78

Here z score is between -2 and 2 hence x=1200 is usual.

b. 2353

z = \frac{2353-2353}{647}

z = 0

Here z=0 lies between -2 and 2 hence x=2353 is usual.

c. 2000

z = \frac{2000-2353}{647}

z = -0.5456

The z score -0.5456 lies between -2 and 2, hence x=2000 is usual.

d. 3647

z = \frac{3647-2353}{647}

z = 2

The z score value 2 is upper bound for unusual z score value range. Hence x=3647 is usual.

1.This circle is centered at the origin and contains the points two units away. Write the equation for this circle.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

1. The location of the center of the given circle = The origin (0, 0)

The given points on the circumference of the circle = (1, √3), and (0, -2)

The general form of the equation of a circle, is presented as follows

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where;

(h, k) = The coordinates of the center of the circle

r = The radius of the circle

∴ (h, k) = (0, 0)

The radius of the given equation is the distance from the center (0, 0) to either the point (0, -2) or (1, √3)

The distance from the center (0, 0) to the point (0, -2), which are points on the same ordinate,  r = y₂ - y₁

∴ r =  0 - (-2) = 2

r = 2

The equation of the circle is therefore;

(x - 0)² + (y - 0)² = 2²

∴ x² + y² = 2²

2. When x = 1, and y = √3, we have;

(1 - 0)² + (√3 - 0)² = 1 + 3 = 4 = 2²

When x = 0, and y = -2, we have;

(0 - 0)² + ((-2) - 0)² = (-2)² = 4 = 2²

Therefore, the points shown on the circle (1, √3), and (0, -2) satisfy the equation of the circle, x² + y² = 2² and are solutions to the equation of the circle
