You may view your assignment online as many times as you like, though the system counts each view as an "Attempt" and also states "Attempts allowed: 1". Please ignore these two messages.

Moreover, enter only numerical values in the blank "Answer" boxes.

Rounding errors may cause the system to grade your answer is incorrect, so please do not round your answers.

3. Click "Submit all and finish" to submit all your answers.

Note that after you have submitted your assignment, the system will indicate correct and incorrect responses.

I suggest you first print out or take screen shots of all questions and calculate your solutions separately from the assignment system. Then when you are ready to submit, return to the system and fill in all appropriate responses in one session.

A research study examined the blood vitamin D levels of the entire US population of landscape gardeners. The population average level of vitamin D in US landscapers was found to be 39.27 ng/mL with a standard deviation of 5.308 ng/mL. Assuming the true distribution of blood vitamin D levels follows a Gaussian distribution, if you randomly select a landscaper in the US, what is the probability that his/her vitamin D level will be 51.02 ng/mLor less?

6% of mosquitos caught at random in any given field study carry malaria. If you conduct a study and capture 64 mosquitos, how many mosquitos infected with malaria would you expect to have in your mosquito-catching Mason jar out of all 64 mosquitos buzzing around? Round up to the nearest whole number if your calculation results in a number with decimal point values. For example, 0.2 rounds up to 1 and 74.25 rounds up to 75.

A research study examined the blood vitamin D levels of the entire US population of landscape gardeners. The population average level of vitamin D in US landscapers was found to be 30.4 ng/mL with a standard deviation of 4.868 ng/mL. Assuming the true distribution of blood vitamin D levels follows a Gaussian distribution, what is thelower valueof the region for which approximately 95% of the data are located within the distribution? Recall the 68-95-99.9% observation discussed in the "Normal Distribution" section of the textbook that is helpful in answering the question.

A research study examined the blood vitamin D levels of the entire US population of landscape gardeners. The population average level of vitamin D in US landscapers was found to be 34.49 ng/mL with a standard deviation of 5.962 ng/mL. Assuming the true distribution of blood vitamin D levels follows a normal distribution, if you randomly select a landscaper in the US, what is the probability that his/her vitamin D level will be 27.76 ng/mLor more?

A research study examined the blood vitamin D levels of the entire US population of landscape gardeners. The population average level of vitamin D in US landscapers was found to be 40.92 ng/mL with a standard deviation of 5.688 ng/mL. Assuming the true distribution of blood vitamin D levels follows a Gaussian distribution, what is the 3-rd percentile? Recall that the statistic, "percentile", is defined to be the value below which a given percentage of observations are located within the distribution. In other words, for this question find the vitamin D value for which 3% of the observations within the distribution are located to the left of this value.
