A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if their glucose level is above 144 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) one hour after a sugary drink is ingested. Rebecca's doctor is concerned that she may suffer from gestational diabetes. There is variation both in the actual glucose level and in the blood test that measures the level. Rebecca's measured glucose level one hour after ingesting the sugary drink varies according to the Normal distribution with µ= 146 mg/dl and o = 4 mg/dl. What is the probability of Rebecca being diagnosed with gestational diabetes if her glucose level is measured: (a) 4 times CS Scanned with CamScanner
A bottler of drinking water fills plastic bottles with a mean volume of 994 millimeters (mL) with a standard deviation of 5 mL. The fill volumes are normally distributed. What proportion of bottles have volumes less than 995 mL? Use Table A.2 (Normal Distribution Table) and keep four decimal places with your answer.
Overproduction of uric acid in the body can be an indication of cell breakdown. This may be an advance indication of illness such as gout, leukemia, or lymphoma. Over a period of months, an adult male patient has taken eight blood tests for uric acid. The mean concentration was = 3.5 mg/dl. The distribution of uric acid in healthy adult males can be assumed to be normal, with σ = 1.85 mg/dl. Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean concentration of uric acid in this patient’s blood. What is the margin of error? What conditions are necessary for your calculations? Interpret results in the context of this problem. Sample Size Find the sample size necessary for a 95% confidence level with maximal margin of error E=1.10 for the mean concentration of uric acid in this patient’s blood.
Researchers wanted to determine if carpeted rooms contained more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms. To determine the amount of bacteria in a room, researchers pumped the air from the room over a Petri dish at the rate of 1 cubic foot per minute for eight carpeted rooms and eight uncarpeted rooms. Colonies of bacteria were allowed to form in the 16 Petri dishes. The results are given in the table below. Assume the distribution to be approximately normal. Do carpeted rooms have more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms? Carpeted Rooms Uncarpeted Rooms 11.7 12.0 8.2 8.3 7.1 3.8 13.1 7.3 10.6 12.0 10.1 11.1 14.8 10.3 14.0 13.7 What is the critical value(s) for this hypothesis test if group 1 is the carpeted rooms and group 2 is the uncarpeted rooms. 1.895 2.306 2.365 1.833 1.860

Exam scores in a large class are normally distributed with a mean of 55 and standard deviation of 10. The teacher decides to boost the scores by adding 20 points to everyone’s score. Elizabeth’s original score on the exam was 75, so her new score is 95. The z-score corresponding to her new score (relative to the other new scores) will be:
Exactly 95% of a normal distribution is located between z = +1.96 and z = -1.96. How much of the distribution is located in the tail beyond z = +1.96?
Sunscreens are products that protect the skin from skin cancer by preventing the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation from penetrating the skin. According to dermatologists, the recommended amount of sunscreen needed to cover the exposed areas of the body is at least an ounce. In a study conducted specifically for a group of women aged 21 to 30 years, it was found the amount of sunscreen (X) applied by the group follows the normal distribution with mean of 0.6 ounce and standard deviation of 0.25 ounce. The amount of sunscreen applied by women aged 21 to 30 years follows a bell-shaped distribution which is symmetric at X = _____.
