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.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Absolute error = 39

Percent Error = 6.10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual value = 639 pounds

Observed Value = 600 pounds

The formula to find absolute error is:

Absolute Error = Actual value - Observed Value

                        = 639 - 600

                        = 39

The formula to find Percent error is:

Percent Error = (Actual value - Observed Value / Actual value)*100

                       = (639 - 600/639)*100

                       = 6.10%
