Consider a value to be significantly low if its z score less than or equal to minus−2 or consider a value to be significantly hi

gh if its z score is greater than or equal to 2. A data set lists weights​ (grams) of a type of coin. Those weights have a mean of 5.752415.75241 g and a standard deviation of 0.062810.06281 g. Identify the weights that are significantly low or significantly high.

Answer:

If the weight is higher than 5.8886 gr would be considered significantly high

If the weight is lower than 5.6121 gr would be considered significantly low

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(5.75241,0.06281)  

Where \mu=5.75241 and \sigma=0.06281

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For the case when z =-2 we can do this:

-2 = \frac{X-5.75241}{0.06281}

And if we solve for X we got:

X = 5.75241 -2*0.06281 =5.6121

And for the other case when Z=2 we have:

2 = \frac{X-5.75241}{0.06281}

And if we solve for X we got:

X = 5.75241 +2*0.06281 =5.8886

If the weight is higher than 5.8886 gr would be considered significantly high

If the weight is lower than 5.6121 gr would be considered significantly low

IgorC [24]

Answer: 288, 576, 1152

Step-by-step explanation: What you do here is that you multiply every number by two. You start by doing 18 times 2, which equals 36. Then you do 36 times 2, which equals 72. You keep on doing this until you get the answers needed.

Hope this helped!! :)
