25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function that represents the amount of mosquitoes as;

M(x) = -(x-5)² + 25

To get the maximum mosquitoes possible, we need to first find x;

At the maximum dM/dx = 0

dM//dx = -2(x-5)

0 = -2(x-5)

-2(x-5) = 0

-2x + 10 = 0

-2x = -10

x = 10/2

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into the function;

M(5) = −(5−5)² +25

M(5) = 0+25

M(5) = 25

Hence the maximum number of mosquitoes is 25

Z-score is 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the Z-score from the standard normal table. Just read the table in reverse.

In this case, Z = 1.75
