Solve this linear equation for p: 2.6(5.5p – 12.4) = 127.92

1. Distributive property:

2. Addition property of equality:

3. Division property of equality:

4. Solution:

14.3p – 32.24 = 127.92

14.3p – 32.24 + 32.24 = 127.92 + 32.24

14.3p = 160.16

StartFraction 14.3 p Over 14.3 EndFraction equals StartFraction 160.16 Over 14.3 EndFraction.

Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 25002500 grams and a standard deviation of 800800 grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 27002700 grams and a standard deviation of 385385 grams. if a 3232-week gestation period baby weighs 21252125 grams and a 4040-week gestation period baby weighs 23252325 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. which baby weighs lessless relative to the gestation period?
