Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2500 grams and a standard deviation of 700

grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3100 grams and a standard deviation of 390 grams. If a 34-week gestation period baby weighs 2950 grams and a 41-week gestation period baby weighs 3550 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs more relative to the gestation period

Answer:

Z-score for 34-week baby = 0.643

Z-score for 41-week baby = 1.154

Baby weight of 41-week is more than the baby weight of 34-week in the gestation period.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2500 grams and a standard deviation of 700 grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3100 grams and a standard deviation of 390 grams. If a 34-week gestation period baby weighs 2950 grams and a 41-week gestation period baby weighs 3550 grams

To find - Find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs more relative to the gestation period.

Proof -

Given that,

In between period of 32 to 35 weeks

Mean = 2500

Standard deviation = 700

In between after a period of 40 weeks

Mean = 3100

Standard deviation = 390

Now,

For a 34-week baby,

X = 2950

For a 41-week baby,

X = 3550

Now,

Z-score = (X - mean) / Standard deviation

Now,

For a 34-week baby,

Z - score = (2950 - 2500) / 700 = 0.643

For a 41-week baby,

Z-score = (3550 - 3100) / 390 = 1.154

∴ we get

Z-score for 34-week baby = 0.643

Z-score for 41-week baby = 1.154

As 1.154 > 0.643

So,

Baby weight of 41-week is more than baby weight of 34-week in the gestation period.

The mean is 8 gerbils and the MAD is 4.29.

<h3>What is the mean?</h3>

Mean is the average of a set of numbers. It is determined by adding the numbers together and dividing it by the total number

Mean = sum of the numbers / total number

(0 + 3 + 6 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 14) / 7 = 8

What is the MAD?

MAD =  ∑ l x - m(x) l

| (0 - 8) + (3 - 8) + (6 - 8) + (9 - 8) + (11 - 8) + (13 - 8) + (14 - 8)| / 7 = 4.29

I can't quite figure out what ( 7- 4n ) x 6 is with distributive property.
Tema [17]

Answer:

(42-24n)

Step-by-step explanation:

(7-4n)×6

take the 6 and multiply it to the integers in the paraenthesis.

so you take the ouside number which is 6 and multiply it with the first number which is 7 in the paraenthesis.

6×7=42

(42-4n)

then take the next number 4n and multiply by 6

4n × 6 = 24n

finally put it all together

(42-24n)
