You must show your work using a calculator function to receive credit. b) Find the probability that a newborn elephant weighs more than 210 pounds. You must show your work using a calculator function to receive credit.

a)

The probability that a newborn elephant weighs between 250 and 275 pounds

P(250≤ x ≤275) = 0.1577

b)

The probability that a newborn elephant weighs more than 210 pounds

P(x >210 ) = 0.6293

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given mean of the Population = 225

Given standard deviation of the population = 45

Let 'X' be the random variable in normal distribution

Let x₁ = 250

Let x₂ = 275

The probability that a newborn elephant weighs between 250 and 275 pounds

P(250≤ x ≤275) =P(0.55≤ Z≤1.11)

                        = P(Z≤1.11) - P(Z≤0.55)

                       = 0.5 + A( 1.11) - ( 0.5 + A(0.55)

                       =  A(1.11) - A(0.55)

                       = 0.3665 - 0.2088

                       = 0.1577

Step(ii):-

The probability that a newborn elephant weighs between 250 and 275 pounds

P(250≤ x ≤275) = 0.1577

b)

Let x = 210

The probability that a newborn elephant weighs more than 210 pounds

P(x >210 ) = P( Z> -0.33)

                = 1- P( Z < -0.33)

               = 1 - ( 0.5 - A(-0.33))    

               = 0.5 + A( -0.33)

              = 0.5 +  A(0.33)                  (∵ A(-0.33) = A(0.33)  

             = 0.5 + 0.1293  

            = 0.6293

Final -

The probability that a newborn elephant weighs more than 210 pounds

P(x >210 ) = 0.6293

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

3 1/3 x 2 3/5 = 8 2/3

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply the first number by the second number to get your answer.
