1) 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 = 9. Find the following probabilities.
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
2)Thickness measurements of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village are approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 4.5 millimeters (mm) and a standard deviation of 1.0 mm. For a randomly found shard, find the following probabilities. a) the thickness is less than 3.0 mm
b) the thickness is more than 7.0 mm
c) the thickness is between 3.0 mm and 7.0 mm.

1)

a) 0.9706 = 97.06% probability that x is less than 60.

b) 0.9987 = 99.87% probability that x is greater than 16.

c) 0.9693 = 96.93% probability that x is between 16 and 60.

d) 0.0294 = 2.94% probability that x is more than 60.

2)

a) 0.0668 = 6.68% probability that the thickness is less than 3.0 mm.

b) 0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the thickness is more than 7.0 mm

c) 0.9270 = 92.70% probability that the thickness is between 3.0 mm and 7.0 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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.

1)

We have that

a) x is less than 60

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 60.

has a pvalue of 0.9706

0.9706 = 97.06% 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.

has a pvalue of 0.0013.

1 - 0.0013 = 0.9987

0.9987 = 99.87% 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.

From a), Z when X = 60 has a pvalue of 0.9706.

From b), Z when X = 16 has a pvalue of 0.0013

0.9706 - 0.0013 = 0.9693

0.9693 = 96.93% 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.

From a), Z when X = 60 has a pvalue of 0.9706.

1 - 0.9706 = 0.0294

0.0294 = 2.94% probability that x is more than 60.

2)

Now

a) the thickness is less than 3.0 mm

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 3.

has a pvalue of 0.0668

0.0668 = 6.68% probability that the thickness is less than 3.0 mm.

b) the thickness is more than 7.0 mm

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 7.

has a pvalue of 0.9938.

1 - 0.9938 = 0.0062

0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the thickness is more than 7.0 mm

c) the thickness is between 3.0 mm and 7.0 mm.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 7 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.

From b), Z when X = 7 has a pvalue of 0.9938.

From a), Z when X = 3 has a pvalue of 0.0668

0.9938 - 0.0668 = 0.9270

0.9270 = 92.70% probability that the thickness is between 3.0 mm and 7.0 mm.

it can be to see completed examples before writing, in order to examine what makes for an effective piece. see how these intros give some context before posing the topic and lead naturally into the body paragraphs, where the evidence will be listed. you can imagine how the author has organized the rest of the piece.

"we buried my cousin last summer. he was 32 when he hanged himself from a closet coat rack in the throes of alcoholism, the fourth of my blood relatives to die prematurely from this deadly disease. if america issued drinking licenses, those four men—including my father, who died at 54 of liver failure—might be alive today. that is a good example piece   some steps that are .

. writing something that happened to you

.read a book you like to get ideas from there

. lastly you can make a venn diagram

hope this plz make brainliest
