Part a)
It was given that 3% of patients gained weight as a side effect.
This means
The mean is
The standard deviation is
We want to find the probability that exactly 24 patients will gain weight as side effect.
P(X=24)
We apply the Continuity Correction Factor(CCF)
P(24-0.5<X<24+0.5)=P(23.5<X<24.5)
We convert to z-scores.
Part b) We want to find the probability that 24 or fewer patients will gain weight as a side effect.
P(X≤24)
We apply the continuity correction factor to get;
P(X<24+0.5)=P(X<24.5)
We convert to z-scores to get:
Part c)
We want to find the probability that
11 or more patients will gain weight as a side effect.
P(X≥11)
Apply correction factor to get:
P(X>11-0.5)=P(X>10.5)
We convert to z-scores:
Part d)
We want to find the probability that:
between 24 and 28, inclusive, will gain weight as a side effect.
P(24≤X≤28)=
P(23.5≤X≤28.5)
Convert to z-scores:
40% of 40
10% of 40 is 4
4 x 4=16
40-16 =24
Answer is 24
Answer:
15x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
5(3x + 2)
15x + 10
Answer:
y = -3x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form of the equation of a line is:
y = mx + b
where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.
First, we find the slope of the line using the two given points.
m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (2 - (-7))/(-1 - 2) = (2 + 7)/(-3) = 9/(-3) = -3
Now we plug in the slope we found into the equation above.
y = -3x + b
We need to find the value of b, the y-intercept. We use the coordinates of one of the given points for x and y, and we solve for b. Let's use point (2, -7), so x = 2, and y = -7.
y = -3x + b
-7 = -3(2) + b
-7 = -6 + b
Add 6 to both sides.
-1 = b
Now we plug in -1 for b.
y = -3x - 1
Answer:
a+b = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 36 possible outcomes for rolling two dice. Let A be the number rolled by Abed and D be the number rolled by Dawn. The sample space, in the format [A,D], of all of the possibilities in which Dawn's number is larger is:
[5,6]
[4,5] [4,6]
[3.4] [3,5] [3.6]
[2,3] [2.4] [2,5] [2.6]
[1,2] [1,3] [1.4] [1,5] [1.6]
There are 15 ways out of 36 possible ways of Dawn getting the higher number. In the simplest form:
