Answer:

Option b) Gina's systolic blood pressure is 1.50 standard deviations above the average systolic blood pressure of women her age.            

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The distribution of systolic blood pressure of other women is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

z-score = 1.50

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Let x be the Gina's systolic blood pressure.

Thus, we can write:

1.50 = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\x = 1.5\sigma + \mu \\\text{where }\sigma \text{ is the standard deviation and }\\\mu \text{ is the mean for the given distribution of blood pressure.}

Thus, we can write Gina's blood pressure  is 1.50 standard deviations above the average systolic blood pressure of women her age.

Option b) Gina's systolic blood pressure is 1.50 standard deviations above the average systolic blood pressure of women her age.

Can someone help me with this math question i really don’t know how to do it!
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

1260

Step-by-step explanation:

He asked 180 people and 63 said cookies so I think you have to do 63 out of each 180 people so you would do 3600 ÷ 180 = 20, 20 x 63 =1260

Not sure if this is right, hope this helps

1. add negative fraction with positive fraction
jok3333 [9.3K]

Given parameters:

        1.        -\frac{7}{8}  + \frac{1}{4}  

 

         -\frac{7}{8}  + \frac{1}{4}; find the LCM = 8

 

             =    \frac{-7  +  2 }{8}        

             =     \frac{-5}{8}

   

       2.   -\frac{12}{5}  + 15.3  

            Make the fraction decimal;

             -\frac{12}{5}   = -2.4

            So;

                        -2.4 + 15.3  = 12.9

Sketch the region bounded by the curves y=3x3, x+y=4, and y=0. Find the coordinates of the centroid.
Scilla [17]
The graph of the region is attached.  The coordinates of the centroid are (5/3, 1).

The coordinates of the centroid are found by averaging the coordinates of the region;

Oₓ = (Aₓ+Bₓ+Cₓ)/3 = (0+1+4)/3 = 5/3
O(y) = (A(y) + B(y) + C(y)) = (0+3+0)/3=3/3=1
