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.

Can some body help me?
maksim [4K]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

2(54-6x)=73-7x

108-12x=73-7x

108-73=-7x+12x

35=5x

x=7

UW=73-7x=73-7(7) = 73-49 = 24

Answer:

To be able to approximate the sampling distribution with a normal model, it is needed that np \geq 10 and n(1-p) \geq 10, and both conditions are satisfied in this problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will make payments on time, or they won't. The probability of a person making the payment on time is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The sampling distribution can be approximated to a normal model if:

np \geq 10 and n(1-p) \geq 10

Based on past experience, a bank believes that 8.9 % of the people who receive loans will not make payments on time.

This means that p = 0.089

The bank has recently approved 220 loans.

This means that n = 220

What must be true to be able to approximate the sampling distribution with a normal model?

np = 220*0.089 = 19.58 \geq 10

n(1-p) = 220*0.911 = 200.42 \geq 10

To be able to approximate the sampling distribution with a normal model, it is needed that np \geq 10 and n(1-p) \geq 10, and both conditions are satisfied in this problem.

3x + 5y = -19<br> 5x - 2y = 16<br> solve for x and y
beks73 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x + 5y = -19)

6x + 10y = -38

5 (5x -2y = 16)

25x - 10y = 80

19x = 42

but idk from there the rest doesn't work Soo if u can find the prob and tell me I'll fix it.
