A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if their glucose level is above 140 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= 140+X mg/dl and σ = X+1 mg/dl, where X is 5. What is the probability of Rebecca being diagnosed with gestational diabetes if her glucose level is measured: a. Once?b. X+1 times, where X is 5?c. X+4 times, where X is 5? Comment on the relationship between the probabilities observed in (a), (b), and (c). Explain why this occurs and what it means in context.
Sheila's doctor is worried that she might develop gestational diabetes during her pregnancy. There is variation both in the actual glucose level and in the blood test that measures the level. A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if their glucose level is above 140 mg/dl one hour after consuming a sugary drink. Sheila's measured glucose level one hour after the sugary drink varies according to the Normal distribution, with p = 125 mg/dl ando = 10 mg/dl. Fill in the following blanks with the correct options: (a) If a single glucose measurement is made, the probability that Sheila is diagnosed as having gestational diabetes is (0.0668, 0.1587, 0.2525, or 0.3173?). (b) Assuming that the population mean is 125 mg/dl, imagine that we repeat taking all possible samples of size 4 from the population, then only about 1.3 out of (10, 100, or 1,000?) sample means will have values as large as (125 or 140?) cm or even larger.

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. About ___% of the women aged 21 to 30 years is applying 0.1 to 1.1 ounce of
