134,500 rounded is 13,000
Let the lengths of pregnancies be X
X follows normal distribution with mean 268 and standard deviation 15 days
z=(X-269)/15
a. P(X>308)
z=(308-269)/15=2.6
thus:
P(X>308)=P(z>2.6)
=1-0.995
=0.005
b] Given that if the length of pregnancy is in lowest is 44%, then the baby is premature. We need to find the length that separates the premature babies from those who are not premature.
P(X<x)=0.44
P(Z<z)=0.44
z=-0.15
thus the value of x will be found as follows:
-0.05=(x-269)/15
-0.05(15)=x-269
-0.75=x-269
x=-0.75+269
x=268.78
The length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature is 268.78 days
-343,000 x 1/3 = -114,333.333333333219

Answer:
it is 8.5 x 10^2 because when you times the 10 twice and then multiply it with 8.5 and the decimal moves
