Calcium levels in people are normally distributed with a mean of 9.5 mg/dL and a standard deviation of 0.3 mg/dL. Individuals wi

th calcium levels in the bottom 10% of the population are considered to have low calcium levels. Find the calcium level that is the borderline between low calcium levels and those not considered low. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to one decimal place.

Answer:

9.1 mg/dL

Explanation:

A normal distribution is symmetrical, the area below the curve of negative Z-scores is equal to the area below the curve of positive Z-scores, Z measures the statistic observed and the parameter of the population.

And it is:

Z = (x - μ)/σ

where μ is the mean (9.5 mg/dL), x is the borderline, and σ is the standard deviation, which is 0.3 mg/dL.

The Z-score can be calculated in excel by the function =NORMSINV, and the factor will be the percente considered (10% = 0.1)

NORMSINV(0.1) = -1.28155

So,

-1.28155 = (x - 9.5)/0.3

x - 9.5 = -0.384465

x = 9.1 mg/dL

The product side of a chemical reaction is shown.
Inga [223]

The number that represents the coefficient on the product side of the chemical reaction, -- > 7Ti_2(SO_4)_3 is 7.

<h3>Coefficients of chemical equations</h3>

In equations representing chemical reactions, the coefficient of each reactant or product of a reaction is the number that comes on the left-hand side just before the chemical formula.

The coefficient of each species in a chemical reaction is obtainable when the equation of the reaction is balanced.

For example, in the following equation: 2A + B = 3C + D

The coefficients of A, B, C, and D are 2, 1, 3, and 1 respectively.

Applying this to the product side of a chemical reaction;  -- > 7Ti_2(SO_4)_3

It means that the coefficient of the product is 7.

Which describes reproducibility
Leya [2.2K]
Reproducibility is a major principle of the scientific method. It means that a result obtained by an experiment or observational study should be achieved again with a high degree of agreement when the study is replicated with the same methodology by different researchers.
