Porphyrin is a pigment in blood protoplasm and other body fluids that is significant in body energy and storage. Let x be a random variable that represents the number of milligrams of porphyrin per deciliter of blood. In healthy circles, x is approximately normally distributed with mean µ = 43 and standard deviation σ = 15. Find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

a. x is less than 60
b. x is greater than 16
c. x is between 16 and 60
d. x is more than 60

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.8708 = 87.08% probability that x is less than 60

b) 0.9641 = 96.41% probability that x is greater than 16.

c) 0.8349 = 83.49% probability that x is between 16 and 60

d) 0.1292 = 12.92% probability that x is more than 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 43, \sigma = 15[/tex]

a. x is less than 60

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 60. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{60 - 43}{15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.13[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8708

0.8708 = 87.08% probability that x is less than 60

b. x is greater than 16

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 16. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{16 - 43}{15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.8[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.8[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0359

1 - 0.0359 = 0.9641

0.9641 = 96.41% probability that x is greater than 16.

c. x is between 16 and 60

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 60 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 16. We found those in a and b, si:

0.8708 - 0.0359 = 0.8349

0.8349 = 83.49% probability that x is between 16 and 60

d. x is more than 60

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 60.

So

1 - 0.8708 = 0.1292

0.1292 = 12.92% probability that x is more than 60.

Can someone help me find x ?

Answers

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the keg rule to find x. The keg rule is given as:

Hypotenuse / leg = leg / part of the hypotenuse directly under the leg

Hypotenuse = 25

Leg = x

Part of the hypotenuse directly under the leg = 25 - 16 = 9

Plug in the values

25/x = x/9

Cross multiply

x*x = 25*9

x² = 225

x = √225

x = 15

What is the x-intercept of the linear function y = 1/3x +1

Answers

Answer:

the x intercept is -3

or (-3,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

the x intercept is the point where the line crosses the x axis. The y value is zero, while x is a number.

Therefore, we can make y equal 0 in the function y=1/3x+1, since the point will pass through the line.

0=1/3x+1

subtract 1 from both sides

-1=1/3x

multiply by 3

-3=x

Therefore the x intercept is -3.

As a point is (-3,0)

Find the missing endpoint if the midpoint is at (2,-5) and one endpoint is at (12,-5).
O (2,-5)
O(-8,-5)
O(10-8)
O (12,-5)

Answers

Answer:

The answer is (-8,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the midpoint is (2, -5), the 2 endpoints should be equidistant from each other. Since  the endpoint that is given (12, -5), is 10 points to the right of the midpoint, the second midpoint should be 10 points to the left of it. 2-10=-8

Therefore, the other midpoint is (-8,-5)

790 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

well in the figure we have to areas

the rectangle of the side (2)the triangle (2)the rectangle of the base (1)

the rectangle of the side

well the area of the rectangle is base times height

we have a base of 11 and a height of 17

[tex]A_{rs}=11*17\\\\A_{rs}=187[/tex]

the triangle

well the area of a triangle is base times height over 2

we have a base of 16 and a height of 15

[tex]A_t = \frac{16\cdot 15}{2}\\\\A_t= 8\cdot15\\\\A_t=120[/tex]

the rectangle of the base

we have a base of 16 and a height of 11

so

[tex]A_{rb} = 16\cdot 11\\\\A_{rb} = 176[/tex]

so the total area is

[tex]A_T = 2(A_{rs})+2(A_{t})+1(A_{rb})\\\\A_T= 2(187)+2(120)+1(176)\\\\A_T=374+240+176\\\\A_T = 790[/tex]

so that's our answer the surface area is 790 m^2

2. A coin is tossed, then a

INDIANAPOLIS is selected at

probability.

Answers

I : 3/12 or 1/4
N : 2/12 or 2/6
D : 1/12
A: 2/12 or 2/6
P: 1/12
O: 1/12
L: 1/12

The probability are for P(h) = 1/2, P(t) = 1/2, P(getting letter P) = 1/12, P(getting a vowel) = 1/2, P(tails then a vowel) = 1/4, P(tails then N) = 1/12, P(heads then D or I) = 1/6.

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have a coin tossed, then a letter from the word INDIANAPOLIS is selected at random.

Probability for getting head or tell:

P(h) = 1/2

P(t) = 1/2

The word INDIANAPOLIS has 12 letters with 3I's, 2A's, 2N's, 1D's, 1P's, 1L's, 1O's, and 1S's

Probability for getting letter P:

P(getting letter P) = 1/12

P(heads, then letter P) = P(heads)×P(getting P) = (1/2)(1/12) = 1/24

P(tails) = 1/2

P(getting a vowel) = 6/12 = 1/2

P(tails then a vowel) = (1/2)(1/2) = 1/4

P(tails then N) = (1/2)(2/12) = 1/12

P(heads then D or I) = (1/2)(4/12) = 4/24 = 1/6

Thus, the probability are for P(h) = 1/2, P(t) = 1/2, P(getting letter P) = 1/12, P(getting a vowel) = 1/2, P(tails then a vowel) = 1/4, P(tails then N) = 1/12, P(heads then D or I) = 1/6.

She befriends a girl named Rania, who introduces her to the piano. Read the passage carefully. Then, answer the essay prompt. 1 Rania led me to an elephant-sized piano that squatted serenely in a corner of the church. Before I touched the piano, the sight of it touched me. It reminded me of the first and only time I had visited a zoo. I twirled with delight. 2 A notebook filled with lines and bead-sized dots had been left open. These are notes. One can read them like numbers in a math book. They translate to phrases, passages, long songs, she explained. 3 Songs? Now the beads became birds on the page, long rows on electric wires, singing. Was it possible that these beads could really sing like birds? What must I do to make them do it? 4 Open the lid, she said. A large number of black and white teeth smiled at me. I became more excited, happy, afraid, all at once. The lid was more of a lip. And I instantly knew why the piano might sing, why the notes could be more than a row of birds. The piano could be a person who loves numbers. 5 Ranias father came over to watch us. He noticed the stunned look on my face. You dont have to read the beads. Just sit down; play the keys. I remained reluctant. There are no rules for playing, he explained. You dont have to make songs. Just make music. He shut the bead book. 6 There are no teachers here. This is not a school, he encouraged. I am a church guard. I did not finish my schooling because I didnt like homework or teachers.
