Hello!
X: Cholesterol level of a woman aged 30-39. (mg/dl)
This variable has an approximately normal distribution with mean μ= 190.14 mg/dl
1. You need to find the corresponding Z-value that corresponds to the top 9.3% of the distribution, i.e. is the value of the standard normal distribution that has above it 0.093 of the distribution and below it is 0.907, symbolically:
P(Z≥z₀)= 0.093
-*or*-
P(Z≤z₀)= 0.907
Since the Z-table shows accumulative probabilities P(Z<Z₁₋α) I'll work with the second expression:
P(Z≤z₀)= 0.907
Now all you have to do is look for the given probability in the body of the table and reach the margins to obtain the corresponding Z value. The first column gives you the integer and first decimal value and the first row gives you the second decimal value:
z₀= 1.323
2.
Using the Z value from 1., the mean Cholesterol level (μ= 190.14 mg/dl) and the Medical guideline that indicates that 9.3% of the women have levels above 240 mg/dl you can clear the standard deviation of the distribution from the Z-formula:
Z= (X- μ)/δ ~N(0;1)
Z= (X- μ)/δ
Z*δ= X- μ
δ=(X- μ)/Z
δ=(240-190.14)/1.323
δ= 37.687 ≅ 37.7 mg/dl
I hope it helps!
<u>Finding the proportionality constant</u> :
- y = k/x
- 16 = k/(1/2)
- <u>k = 8</u>
<u>Finding y when x = 17</u> :
The value of y is <u>8/17</u> when x = 17.
The probability that the sample mean is within 2 standard deviations on the high side and 1 standard deviation on the low side is about 0.8186.

Step-by-step explanation:
sum of angles on a straight line = 180
b + b + 148 = 180
2b + 148 = 180
