Porphyrin is a pigment in blood protoplasm and other body fluids that is significant in body energy and storage. Let x be a rand

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Question 1:

(a) P(x<60) = 0.9236

(b) P(x>16) = 0.9564

(c) P(16<x<60) = 0.88

(d) P (x>60) = 0.0764

Question 2:

(a) P(x<3) = 0.0668

(b) P(x>7) = 0.0062

(c) P(3<x<7) = 0.927

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

x = no. of mg of porphyrin per deciliter of blood.

μ = 40

σ = 14

(a) We need to compute P(x<60). We need to find the z-score using the normal distribution formula:

z = (x - μ)/σ

P(x<60) = P((x - μ)/σ < (60 - 40)/14)

= P(z < 20/14)

= P(z<1.43)

Using the normal distribution probability table we can find the value of p at z=1.43.

P(z<1.43) = 0.9236

so, P(x<60) = 0.9236

(b) P(x>16) = P(z>(16-40)/14)

= P(z>-1.71)

= 1 - P(z<-1.71)

= 1 - 0.0436

P(x>16) = 0.9564

(c) P(16<x<60) = P((16-40)/14) < x < (60-40)/14)

= P(-1.71 < z < 1.43)

This probability can be calculated as: P(z<1.43) - P(z<-1.71)

P(16<x<60) = 0.9236 - 0.0436

P(16<x<60) = 0.88

(d) P(x>60) = 1 - P(x<60)

we have calculated P(x<60) in part (a) so,

P(x>60) = 1 - 0.9236

P (x>60) = 0.0764

Question 2:

μ = 4.5 mm

σ = 1.0 mm

In this question, we will again compute the z-scores and then find the probability from the normal distribution table.

(a) P(x<3) = P(z<(3-4.5)/1)

= P(z<-1.5)

P(x<3) = 0.0668

(b) P(x>7) = 1 - P(x<7)

= 1 - P(z<(7-4.5)/1)

= 1 - P(z<2.5)

= 1 - 0.9938

P(x>7) = 0.0062

(c) P(3<x<7) = P(x<7) - P(x<3)

we have computed both of these probabilities in parts (a) and (b) so,

P(3<x<7) = 0.9938 - 0.0668

P(3<x<7) = 0.927

Whats a common facter of 32 and 36

KengaRu [80]

Common Factors of 32 and 36
factors of 32 = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32
factors of 36 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 18, 36
So the common factors of 32 and 36 are 1, 2 and 4.
The greatest common factor is 4

That equation has no solution. There is no number that can be written in place of 'x' that makes the equation true.

For all the following, which ones represent y as a function of x, and how do you know?

earnstyle [38]

Only 25 and 28 are functions.

A function must have only one y value per x value. For 26, the y value of 0 and multiple others have two different y values. For 27, all x values less than 0 have multiple y values.

A claw arcade machine contains stuffed animals and mystery boxes. There are 51 items in the machine. Winning a stuffed animal ha

Oliga [24]

Answer: 34 stuffed animals & 17 mystery boxes.

First off, split 51 into three parts, trying to find how much 1/3 is of 51. It equals 17.

The stuffed animals in the machine are “twice as much” of the mystery boxes, so you need to multiply 17 x 2 to find the amount of stuffed animals.

17 x 2 = 34

As for the mystery boxes, you need to multiply it by one.

17 x 1 = 17.

In summary, the answer is 34 stuffed animals and 17 mystery boxes.
