(1 point) Sheila's measured glucose level one hour after a sugary drink varies according to the Normal distribution with μμ = 130 mg/dl and σσ = 20 mg/dl. What is the level L such that there is probability only 0.1 that the mean glucose level of 4 test results falls above L?

solution

Given that,

mean = = 130

standard deviation = = 20

n = 4

= 130

= / n =20 / 4=10

Using standard normal table,

P(Z > z) =0.1

= 1 - P(Z < z) = 0.1

= P(Z < z ) = 1 - 0.1

= P(Z < z ) = 0.9

= P(Z < 1.28 ) = 0.9

z = 1.28 ( using z table)

Using z-score formula

= z * +

= 1.28 *10+130

= 142.8

=143

L==143

(1 point) Sheila's doctor is concerned that she may suffer from gestational diabetes (high blood glucose levels during 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 the glucose level is above 140 miligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) one hour after having a sugary drink. Sheila's measured glucose level one hour after the sugary drink varies according to the Normal distribution with...

1. One of the roles of the liver is to maintain a blood glucose level between 70 – 120 mg/dL (roughly 3.8 – 6.7 mM). Several factors are involved in the fact that liver cells (hepatocytes) respond differently than other cell types; on of those factors is differential expression of hexokinase isoforms. Most cells express hexokinase I; the liver primarily uses isoform IV, more commonly referred to as glucokinase. The table below summarized some of the differences between these isoforms....
