A person's level of blood glucose and diabetes are closely related. Let x be a random variable measured in milligrams of glucose

per deciliter (1/10 of a liter) of blood. Suppose that after a 12-hour fast, the random variable x will have a distribution that is approximately normal with mean μ = 90 and standard deviation of σ = 21 What is the probability that, for an adult after a 12-hour fast, x is less than 53?

Answer:

3.92% probability that, for an adult after a 12-hour fast, x is less than 53

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 90, \sigma = 21

What is the probability that, for an adult after a 12-hour fast, x is less than 53?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 53.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{53 - 90}{21}

Z = -1.76

Z = -1.76 has a pvalue of 0.0392

3.92% probability that, for an adult after a 12-hour fast, x is less than 53

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Three contributing factors that led to human trafficking

Political instability, militarism, civil unrest, internal armed conflict and natural disasters may result in an increase in trafficking. The destabilization and displacement of populations increase their vulnerability to exploitation and abuse through trafficking and forced labour.

kristy asks lonnie to think of a number, add 3 to it, multiply the sum by 2 and then subtract 6 . let n stand for lonnies starti
geniusboy [140]

The expression that represents Lonnie's final number is 2(x + 3) - 6

<h3>Writing an expression</h3>

From the given information, we are to write the expression that represents Lonnie's final number

From the given information,

"<em>kristy asks lonnie to think of a number, add 3 to it</em>"

Let the number be x

Then,

The statement becomes

x + 3

<em>"multiply the sum by 2</em>" we get

2×(x +3)

= 2(x + 3)

"<em> subtract 6</em>",

The expression becomes

2(x + 3) - 6

This is the expression that represents Lonnie's final number

Hence, the expression that represents Lonnie's final number is 2(x + 3) - 6
