According to the WHO report, girls who are 2-years old have a mean head circumference of 47.18cm with a standard deviation of 1.

40 cm. A two year old girl with Down's syndrome has a head circumference of 44.5 cm. Children with Down's syndrome typically have smaller heads, so this is not surprising. 1. Relative to the WHO data, what is this girls z-score? What does the z score tell us? 2. Using the WHO data in a normal model, what percentage of the girls has a head circumference that is smaller than the girl with Down's Syndrome?

Answer:

1. z = -1.91429

The z score tells us that the head circumference of the girl with the down syndrome ( 44.5 cm) is 1.91429 standard deviations below the mean or average head circumference

2. 2.7792%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Relative to the WHO data, what is this girls z-score?

z score formula is:

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = 44.5 cm

μ is the population mean = 47.18cm

σ is the population standard deviation = 1.40cm

z = 44.5 - 47.18/1.40

z = -1.91429

What does the z score tell us?

The z score tells us that the head circumference of the girl with the down syndrome ( 44.5 cm) is 1.91429 standard deviations below the mean or average head circumference

2. Using the WHO data in a normal model, what percentage of the girls has a head circumference that is smaller than the girl with Down's Syndrome?

z score = -1.91429

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(z =-1.91429) = P(x<44.5) = 0.027792

Converting to percentage = 0.027792 × 100

= 2.7792%

A rectangle is dilated by a scale factor of 4.
Elanso [62]
A) The new dimensions would be 32cm by 12cm.
B) This is an enlargement.

To find the new dimensions, multiply the original dimensions by the scale factor.  8*4=32 and 3*4=12.

This is an enlargement because the copy is larger than the original.

Explain how you would graph the line containing a slope of –1/5 that goes through the point (1,–4).
Anettt [7]
Slope = -1/5
Coordinate = (1, -4)

We know, y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y + 4 = -1/5 (x - 1)
y + 4 = -1/5x + 1/5
y = -1/5x -19/5

When, x = 1, y = -1/5(1) - 19/5 = -20/5 = -4
x = 2, y = -1/5(2) - 19/5 = -21/5
x = 3, y = -1/5(3) - 19/5 = -22/5

Here, Your Coordinates would be: (0, -4), (1, -21/5), (2, -22/5)
Mark them & draw the lines. Graph is done!

Hope this helps!

NEED ASAP Which line is parallel to the line y=4x-2?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

y = 4x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation y = 4x - 2, we need to find the equation parallel to this line. Note that for two equations to be parallel to each other, the must have the same slope

Standard form of an equation is y = mx + b

Compare;

mx = 4x

m = 4

Since the slope of the given equation is 4, the required equation must also have a slope of 4

Since we are not given an option, we can assume any equation with a slope of 4

y = 4x + 1 will be parallel to the given equation since they both have the same slope

<em>Note that the equation can be different so far they have the slope of 4</em>
