According to the WHO report, girls who are one month old have a mean head circumference of 36.6 centimeters with a standard deviation of 1.2 centimeters. As with most body measurements, head circumference has a normal probability distribution. Medscape defines microcephaly (small head syndrome) as a head circumference that is more than two standard deviations below the mean. What is the probability that a one-month old girl will be categorized as having microcephaly

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0228 = 2.28% probability that a one-month old girl will be categorized as having microcephaly

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

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.

Medscape defines microcephaly (small head syndrome) as a head circumference that is more than two standard deviations below the mean. What is the probability that a one-month old girl will be categorized as having microcephaly?

Probability of a z-score of -2 or less, which is the p-value of Z = -2.

Looking at the z-table, Z = -2 has a p-value of 0.0228.

0.0228 = 2.28% probability that a one-month old girl will be categorized as having microcephaly

taking Square root

[tex]y = + - 3[/tex]

placing this value of y² in eq. (i)

3x²- 2×9 = 57

3x² - 18 = 57

adding 18 to both sides

3x² = 57 + 18

diving both sides by 3

x² = 25

x = ± 5

So, the values of x are +5 and -5 and the values of y are +3 and -3

Round your answer to the nearest person.

Answers

Answer:

The absolute change was of -21,665 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute change:

Final value subtracted by the initial value.

In this question:

Initial value: 699,710

Final value: 678,045

What is the absolute change from 2012 to 2016?

678045 - 699710 = -21,665

Joe bikes at the speed of 30 km/h from his home toward his work. If Joe's wife leaves home 5 mins later by car, how fast should she drive in order to overtake him in 10 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a really good question to know the answer to. It is tricky and a bit indirect (which means you have to find something else before you can find the speed of the car.)

Let's keep track of what he does in the time allotted.

How far does Joe go in 5 minutes? That's the amount of time he's on the road before she is.

convert 5 minutes into hours. 5 minutes * 1 hour / 60 minutes = 1/12 of an hour

d = r*t

r = 30 km/hour

t = 1/12 hour

d = 30 km/hr * 1/12 hour = 2.5 km

Now she's about to start. She wants to catch him in 10 minutes

d = r*t

r = x mph

t = 10 minutes = 10 minutes * 1 hour * 60 minutes = 1/6 of an hour.

How far does he go in the 10 minute time?

d = 30 * 1/6 = 5 km

What is his total distance

5 km + 2.5 km = 7.5 km

Finally how fast does she need to go to catch him

d = 7.5 km

r = ?   This is what you are trying to find

t = 1/6 of an hour

d = r*t

7.5 km = r * (1/6)hour             divide by 1/6 hour

7.5 km // 1/6 hour = r

r = 7.5 * 6 = 45 mph

What is the inverse of function f? f(x)=3-x/7

Answers

Answer:

[tex] {f}^{ - 1} (x) = \frac{x}{3} + \frac{7}{3} [/tex]

hence option d is the correct option.

Answer:

Option C is answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Given;

f(x) = (3-x) /7

Let f(x) be "y".

y = (3-x) /7

Interchanging "x" and "y".

x = (3-y)/7

7x = 3-y

y = 3-7x

Therefore, f'(x) = 3-7x.

For the following system, if you isolated x in the second equation to use the substitution method, what expression would you substitute into the first equation?
3x + y = 8
-x - 2y = -10
O-2y + 10
O 2y + 10
O 2y - 10
O-2y - 10

Answers

Answer:

-2y + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitution method:

On the second equation of the system, we have to find x as a function of y.

-x - 2y = -10

We have to find x as a function of y, so:

[tex]-x = -10 + 2y[/tex]

Multiplying both sides of the equality by -1:

[tex]x = -2y + 10[/tex]

So -2y + 10 is the answer to this question.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

they say by noon 4 inches of rain has fallen,    then the say that it's falling at  1/4 inch per hour

f(x) = 1/4x +4

where x is in hours, and  f(x)  represents the linear graph of the amount of rain that has fallen after noon   :)

so by 2:30   or  2.5 hours....  then

f(2.5) = 1/4x +4

y = 1/4 (2.5) +4  ( i moved to the y  b/c now there is an answer)

y =[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] + 4

y =4[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]   inches of rain

Answer:

a) y = 1/4x + 4

b) 4.625 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

a) y(0) = 4 inches

slope = 1/4 rate

y = 1/4x + 4

b) 12:00pm (noon) to 2:30pm = 2 hours 30 mins = 2.5 hours

y = 1/4x + 4

y = (1/4)(2.5) + 4

y = 0.625 + 4

y = 4.625 inches

June, Gavyn and Alex share some sweets in the ratio 5:5:3. June gets 22 more sweets than Alex. How many sweets are there altogether?

Answers

Answer:

Let June's sweets be 5x.

Then Gavyn's sweets will be 5x.

And Alex's sweets will be 3x.

5x = 3x + 22

2x = 22

x = 11

So June has 5 x 11 = 55 sweets

Gavyn has 5 x 11 = 55 sweets

And Alex have 3 x 11 = 33 sweets

Total

= 55 + 55 + 33

= 143 sweets

the shorter side of a rectangle is 60% of the longer side and the perimeter of the rectangle is 96 inches. find the side lengths

Answers

Answer:

Length of the rectangle:

[tex]x = \frac{4800}{106} = \frac{2400}{53} [/tex]

Breadth of the rectangle:

[tex]60\%(x) = \frac{60}{100} \times \frac{4800}{106} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ =60 \times \frac{48}{106} \\ = \frac{2880}{106} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Longer side of the rectangle(length) = x

Shorter side of the rectangle(breadth) = (60%)x

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(l+b) = 96 inches

Hence,

[tex]96 = 2(x + 60\%(x))[/tex]

[tex]96 = 2(x + \frac{6}{100 } x)[/tex]

[tex]96 = 2( \frac{100}{1 00} x + \frac{6}{100} x)[/tex]

[tex]96 = 2( \frac{106}{100} x)[/tex]

[tex]96 = \frac{106}{50} x[/tex]

[tex]96 \div \frac{106}{50} = x[/tex]

[tex]96 \times \frac{50}{106} = x[/tex]

[tex] \frac{4800}{106} = x[/tex]

If it takes Ohenhen 10km to pass to Emma and it takes Emma 8km to pass to Omusi and considering Ohenhen & Omusi are at perpendicular ends from Emma. What's the distance between Ohenhen and Omusi?​

Answers

Answer:

12.81 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras formula for right-angled triangles.

this scenario just says that Emma is the corner point of that triangle with an angle of 90 degrees.

the distance between Ohenhen and Omusi is the baseline (Hypotenuse c) of that triangle. and the distances to Emma are the sides a and b.

so the formula is

c² = a² + b² = 10² + 8² = 100 + 64 = 164

[tex]c = \sqrt{164} [/tex]

c ≈ 12.81 km (rounded to the nearest hundredth).

Assuming the probability of a single sample testing positive is 0.15​, find the probability of a positive result for two samples combined into one mixture. Is the probability low enough so that further testing of the individual samples is rarely​ necessary?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(Positive\ Mixture) = 0.2775[/tex]

The probability is not low

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]P(Single\ Positive) = 0.15[/tex]

[tex]n = 2[/tex]

Required

[tex]P(Positive\ Mixture)[/tex]

First, we calculate the probability of single negative using the complement rule

[tex]P(Single\ Negative) = 1 - P(Single\ Positive)[/tex]

[tex]P(Single\ Negative) = 1 - 0.15[/tex]

[tex]P(Single\ Negative) = 0.85[/tex]

[tex]P(Positive\ Mixture)[/tex] is calculated using:

[tex]P(Positive\ Mixture) = 1 - P(All\ Negative)[/tex] ---- i.e. complement rule

So, we have:

[tex]P(Positive\ Mixture) = 1 - 0.85^2[/tex]

[tex]P(Positive\ Mixture) = 1 - 0.7225[/tex]

[tex]P(Positive\ Mixture) = 0.2775[/tex]

Probabilities less than 0.05 are considered low.

So, we can consider that the probability is not low because 0.2775 > 0.05
