Answer:

0.999 = 99.9% probability that the baby weighs less than 150 Oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

The weights of newborn babies are distributed normally, with a mean of approximately 105 Oz and a standard deviation of 15 Oz.

This means that \mu = 105, \sigma = 15

What if the probabability that the baby weighs less than 150 Oz?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 150. SO

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

Z = \frac{150 - 105}{15}

Z = 3

Z = 3 has a pvalue of 0.999

0.999 = 99.9% probability that the baby weighs less than 150 Oz.

Answer:

-11

Step-by-step explanation

Condition:

2(4+x)=x-3

8+2x=x-3

Combining similar terms

8+3=x-2x

11=-x

OR

x=-11

Find “X” thank you!!!! <33

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that the angle at A is 90 degrees.. which it does seem like it would be.  then use that the sum of the angles around the inside of a right triagle is 180 .   so  you have

180 = 37 + 90 + x

53° = x  

does that help?
