Answer:
The highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10% is 160.59 milligrams per deciliter.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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:

Find the highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10%.
This is the 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So X when Z = -1.28.




The highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10% is 160.59 milligrams per deciliter.
5. bxh divided by 2
so 16 x 6=96
96 divided by 2 = 48
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
The next step is to add (1/2 * 8)^2 = 4^2 = 16 to the 8x and subtract 16 from the + 6:
- to give (x^2 + 8x + 16) + 6 - 16 as the next step in the process.
The extreme minimum is +6 - 16 = -10.
