Answer:
a. her weight is 1.5 standard deviations below average
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
z score of the weight of the woman = - 1.5
Now,
The relation with the actual value and the z score is given as
x = Average + ( z × Standard deviation )
now,
substituting the value of z = - 1.5
We have
x = Average - 1.5 ×  Standard deviation 
Hence,
z score = -1.5 means a. her weight is 1.5 standard deviations below average.
 
        
             
        
        
        
1. Hypnosis can help people stop smoking.(Yes)
To what extent does hypnosis work in regards to these behaviors?
A study by McNeilly and colleagues found that hypnosis may help quitters to focus on their own resources to curb cigarette cravings. Other researchers have suggested that success rates are caused by the relaxation effects of hypnosis. These might allow people to cope with nicotine addiction and nicotine withdrawal.
Would you recommend them? Why or why not?
I wouldn't recommend it because, The evidence for hypnosis as a successful smoking cessation method is a mixed bag. Some studies have seen high success rates, whilst others are more modest. A review of 59 different trials found that hypnosis is often better than no support at all.( so its a risk)

B. As a cross country runner its very important to warm up before I run a marathon or a long distance run or just any run in general its always something I have to do. If your do the strenuous activity without warming up your muscles will be tight and will sort of go into shock. By warming up you are releasing tension in your muscles and ligaments and getting you blood flowing. In my experience I didn't warmup once before a half marathon and had to stop about a mile in because I tore my hamstring. It strained it right off the bat and kept getting worse just because I forgot to stretch! I hope this helps!
