The correct option is: a female who weighs 1500 g
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
<u>Formula for finding the z-score</u> is:
Newborn males have weights with a mean of 3272.8 g and a standard deviation
of 660.2 g.
So, the z-score for the newborn male who weighs 1500 g will be.......
According to the normal distribution table,
Now, newborn females have weights with a mean of 3037.1 g and a standard deviation
of 706.3 g.
So, the z-score for the newborn female who weighs 1500 g will be.......
According to the normal distribution table,
As we can see that the <u>probability that a newborn female has weight of 1500 g is greater than newborn male</u>, so a newborn female has the weight of 1500 g that is more extreme relative to the group from which he came.
First, let's use the given information to determine the function's amplitude, midline, and period.
Then, we should determine whether to use a sine or a cosine function, based on the point where x=0.
Finally, we should determine the parameters of the function's formula by considering all the above.
Determining the amplitude, midline, and period
The midline intersection is at y=5 so this is the midline.
The maximum point is 1 unit above the midline, so the amplitude is 1.
The maximum point is π units to the right of the midline intersection, so the period is 4 * π.
Determining the type of function to use
Since the graph intersects its midline at x=0, we should use thesine function and not the cosine function.
This means there's no horizontal shift, so the function is of the form -
a sin(bx)+d
Since the midline intersection at x=0 is followed by a maximumpoint, we know that a > 0.
The amplitude is 1, so |a| = 1. Since a >0 we can conclude that a=1.
The midline is y=5, so d=5.
The period is 4π so b = 2π / 4π = 1/2 simplified.
