Answer: The value of c would be 26.514 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 17 lb

Standard deviation = 3.3 lb

At 99%  level of significance, z = 2.58

So, it becomes,

Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\2.58=\dfrac{X-17}{3.3}\\\\2.58\times 3.3=X-17\\\\8.514+17=X\\\\X=25.514

So, the weight c would be

c=25.514+1\\\\c=26.514

Hence, the value of c would be 26.514 lb.

scZoUnD [109]
<h3>Answer:  11.55 liters</h3>

=================================================

Work Shown:

275 mL = 275/1000 = 0.275 L

1 cup = 0.275 L

6 cups = 6*0.275 L = 1.65 L

He drinks 1.65 L per day, so over 7 days he drinks a total of 7*1.65 = 11.55 liters.
