Answer:
a) For this case we can use the definition of weighted average given by:

And if we replace the values given we have:

b) 
c) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the following question: "One sample has a mean of M=8 and a second sample has a mean of M=16 . The two samples are combined into a single set of scores.
a) What is the mean for the combined set if both of the original samples have n=4 scores
"
For this case we can use the definition of weighted average given by:

And if we replace the values given we have:

b) what is the mean for the combined set if the first sample has n=3 and the second sample has n=5
Using the definition we have:

c) what is the mean for the combined set if the first sample has n=5 and the second sample has n=3
Using the definition we have:

19,200 ! To get the surface area of the rectangular prism you have to get the area of each side. Length x Width x Sides(6 in your case).
Given:
n = 27, sample size
df = n-1 = 26, degrees of freedom
xb = 11.8, sample mean
s = 2.3, sample standard deviation.
Because population statistics are not known, we should use the Student's t-distribution.
At 99% confidence interval, the t-value = 2.779 (from tables).
The confidence interval is
11.8 +/- 2.779*(2.3/√(27)) = 11.8 +/- 1.23 = (10.57, 13.03)
Answer: (10.6, 13.0) to the nearest tenth
{-2,12} -D because 12x divided by 24 is -2 and 10x plus 2x is 12
