Answer:
a) 0.04
b) 0.54674
c) 0.10565
d) It is not unusual to have preterm babies
Step-by-step explanation:
The lengths of a particular animal's pregnancies are approximately normally distributed, with mean, μ = 272 days and standard deviation, σ = 16 days.
We solve the above question using z score formula
z = (x-μ)/σ, where
x is the raw score
μ is the population mean
σ is the population standard deviation.
(a) What proportion of pregnancies lasts more than 300 days?
z = 300 - 272/16
= 1.75
Probability/proportion value from Z-Table:
P(x<300) = 0.95994
P(x>300) = 1 - P(x<300) = 0.040059
Approximately = 0.04
(b) What proportion of pregnancies lasts between 260 and 284 days?
For x = 260 days
z = 260 - 272/16
= -0.75
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 260) = 0.22663
For x = 284
z= 284 - 272/16
= 0.75
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 284) = 0.77337
The proportion of pregnancies lasts between 260 and 284 days is
P(x= 284) - P(x = 260)
0.77337 - 0.22663
= 0.54674
(c) What is the probability that a randomly selected pregnancy lasts no more than 252 days?
No more than means less than or equal to, hence, we are to find
P ≤ 252 days
Hence,
z = 252 - 272/16
= -1.25
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x ≤ 252) = 0.10565
(d) A "very preterm" baby is one whose gestation period is less than 236 days. Are very preterm babies unusual?
We find the probability of 236 days
For x = 236
z = 236 - 272/16
z = -2.25
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x<236) = 0.012224
Converting to percentage = 1.2224%
Hence, it is not unusual to have preterm babies
Noah said, "Division always results in a smaller number. When you divide a number by a second number, the result will always be smaller than the first number."
Jada said, "I disagree. I think the result can be larger or smaller, depending on the number you are dividing by."
Do you agree with Noah or Jada?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Greater, provided the divisor is positive.
It would be more accurate and clearer to say that when dividing a number which is greater than zero by a number between 0 and 1, then the quotient is greater than the dividend.
If the divisor is negative and the dividend is positive, then the quotient is negative (and hence less than the dividend).
Multiplying and Dividing by Powers of 10 When multiplying a number by 10, move the decimal to the right. When multiplying a number by 0.1, move the decimal to the left. Why?
Answer:
Because we actually divide by 10 when a number is multiplied by 0.1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let [tex]a[/tex] be a number.
When we multiply a number by 10:
[tex]a \times 10 = 10 a[/tex] (One '0' is increased in the number)
For example:
[tex]23 \times 10 = 230[/tex]
Considering a decimal number:
[tex]2.3 \times 10 = 23[/tex]
Multiplying a number with 0.1 (which is actually [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex]) means dividing the number by 10.
[tex]23\times 0.1 =23\times \frac{1}{10}=2.3[/tex]
Considering a decimal number:
[tex]2.3 \times 0.1 = 2.3 \times \frac{1}{10} = 0.23[/tex]
Therefore, When multiplying a number by 0.1, move the decimal to the left.
Answer:
Sample Response: You move the decimal to the right when multiplying a number by 10 because you are making the number bigger. You move the decimal to the left when multiplying a number by 0.1 because you are making the number smaller.

Use inductive reasoning to write the next two terms in each sequence of numbers.
B.) 720, 180, 360, 90, _____, _____ .
Answer: 180, 45
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you look at the patterns for each numbers, so you can apply the rules for the next two sequences
720 divided by 180 = 4
360 divided by 180 = 2
360 divided by 90 = 4
for the next sequences, you multiply the last number by 2 (90 x 2 =180)
then divide the answer by 4 to get the answer (180 divided by 4 = 45)
so the next two numbers are 180, 45

What is the solution to the system of equations below?
y=-6x-10
and
y=-3x-21
(2, -22)
(2,48)
(-2, 2)
(-2, -20)
Answer:
Please check the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equations
[tex]y=-6x-10[/tex]
[tex]y=-3x-21[/tex]
solving the system of the equations
Arrange the equation variables for elimination
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}y+6x=-10\\ y+3x=-21\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
[tex]y+3x=-21[/tex]
[tex]-[/tex]
[tex]\underline{y+6x=-10}[/tex]
[tex]-3x=-11[/tex]
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}y+6x=-10\\ -3x=-11\end{bmatrix}[/tex]
solve
[tex]-3x=-11[/tex]
Divide both sides by -3
[tex]\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{-11}{-3}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{For\:}y+6x=-10\mathrm{\:plug\:in\:}x=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]
[tex]y+6\cdot \frac{11}{3}=-10[/tex]
[tex]y+6\cdot \frac{11}{3}=-10[/tex]
[tex]y=-32[/tex]
Therefore, the solutions to the system of the equations are:
[tex]y=-32,\:x=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]
But, it seems none of the options is true.

What’s the answer to the question
Answer:
Slope = -2, y-intercept = 12 (b)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the slope formula:
slope = change in y (y2-y1) / change in x (x2-x1)
slope = (12-18)/(0+3)
slope = -6/3
slope = -2
The slope is -2
If you look in the table, when x=0, the y value equals 12. This means that the y-intercept = 12, since the y-intercept is when the x equals 0. Thus we have our answer.

A surveyor is surveying a street. The surveyor is standing at point Plooking down the street at a No Parking sign at point A and a stop sign at point R. Given PA=3x-4, PR=21 meters, AR=7 meters and point A is between point Rand point What is the value of x in meters?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If point A is between P and R, then;
PA+AR = PR
Given
PA=3x-4,
PR=21 meters,
AR=7 meters
Substitute
3x-4 +7 = 21
3x+3 = 21
3x = 21-3
3x =18
x =18/3
x = 6
Hence the value of x is 6m

Answer:
-1/11
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{11x}{12} -\frac{1}{6} =\frac{-1}{4}[/tex] add 1/6 to both sides
[tex]\frac{11x}{12} =\frac{1}{6} -\frac{1}{4}[/tex] make the same denominator 12 on the right side
[tex]\frac{11x}{12} =\frac{1}{6}*\frac{2}{2} -\frac{1}{4}*\frac{3}{3}[/tex] solve
[tex]\frac{11x}{12} =\frac{2}{12} -\frac{3}{12} =\frac{2-3}{12} = \frac{-1}{12}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{11x}{12}*12 =\frac{-1}{12} *12[/tex] multiply by 12 both sides
11x= -1 divide by 11
x= -1/11
