randomly selected, find the probability that their mean blood pressure will be greater than 122.

Answer:

0.0062

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable blood pressure.The information we are given are

mean blood pressure=μx=120

standard deviation blood pressure=σx=8

we have to find P(mean bp>122)=P(xbar>122).

P(Xbar>122)=P(xbar-μxbar/σxbar>122-μxbar/σxbar)=P(Z>122-μxbar/σxbar)

Now, we have to find μxbar and σxbar. We know that

μxbar=μx

σxbar=σx/sqrt(n).

So, μxbar=μx=120

σxbar=σx/sqrt(n)=8/sqrt(100)=0.8

P(Xbar>122)=P(Z>122-120/0.8)=P(Z>2.5)=P(0<z<∞)-P(0<z<2.5)

From normal distribution table P(0<z<2.5)=0.4938 and we know that P(0<z<∞)=0.5. So,

P(Xbar>122)=0.5-0.4938=0.0062

There is 0.62% chance that the mean blood pressure of 100 people will be greater than 122

Find the solution to the system of equations: x + 3y = 7 and 2x + 4y = 8 1. Isolate x in the first equation: 2. Substitute the v
klemol [59]
X + 3y = 7
x = -3y + 7

2x + 4y = 8
2(-3y + 7) + 4y = 8
-6y + 14 + 4y = 8
-2y = 8 - 14
-2y = - 6
y = -6/-2
y = 3

x + 3y = 7
x + 3(3) = 7
x + 9 = 7
x = 7 - 9
x = -2

solution is (-2,3)
