Answer:
a) The probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer is given by 1 subtracted by the p-value of , in which
is the mean and
is the standard deviation.
b) We have to find X when Z has a p-value of , and X is given by:
, in which
is the mean and
is the standard deviation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question:
Mean , standard deviation
a. Find the probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer.
The probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer is given by 1 subtracted by the p-value of , in which
is the mean and
is the standard deviation.
b. If the length of pregnancy is in the lowest a%, then the baby is premature. Find the length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature.
We have to find X when Z has a p-value of , and X is given by:
, in which
is the mean and
is the standard deviation.
Actually Welcome to the concept of Parallel lines.
We must first understand that, Parallel Lines always have a same Slope, hence the 'm' value in y=mx+c equation will same, here it is '1/2' in the above equation,
so the points here are (-6,-17)
==>
(y-(-17)) = m(x-(-6))
==>
here m = 1/2 ,hence
y+17 = 1/2(x+6)
==> y+17 = 1/2(x) + 3
==> y = 1/2(x) + 3 - 17
==> y = 1/2(x) - 14
hence the Option 4.) is the correct answer!!
