X+(x+1)+(x+2)=63
3x+3=63
3x=60
x=20
Consecutive integers are: 20, 21, 22
Answer: 22

This problem states that the sum of 3 consecutive integers is 63 and it asks us to find the largest integer.

Three consecutive integers can be represented as followed.

X → first integer

X + 1 → second integer

X + 2 → third integer

Since the sum of our three consecutive integers is 24, we can write an equation.

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 63

We can simplify our equation on the left and it will read...

<h2>3x + 3 = 63</h2><h2> -3 -3</h2><h2></h2><h2>3x = 60</h2><h2> ÷3 ÷3 ← divide both sides by 3</h2><h2></h2><h2>X = 20</h2><h2></h2><h2>Largest integer = X + 2</h2><h2>20 + 2 = 22</h2><h2></h2><h2>Largest integer = 22</h2>

Before we use an applet to simulate the selection of random samples from this population, let’s make sure we are clear about who

Sauron [17]

Answer:

D) college students

The college students are best describes the population

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Explanation</u>:-

<u>Introduction</u>:-

The outcome of a statistical experiment may be recorded either as a numerical value or as a descriptive representation.

<u>Example</u>:-

when a pair of dice are tossed and the sum of the numbers on the faces is the outcome of interest, we record a numerical value.

If the students of a certain school are given blood tests and the type of blood is of interest, we record a numerical value.

In particular study, the number of possible observations may be <u>small, large but finite or infinite.</u>

<u> Example :- 1</u>

In the classification of blood types we can only have as many observations as there are students in the school.

Therefore the results are <u>finite number</u> of observations.

<u>Example :- 2</u>

If we could toss a pair of dice indefinitely and record the sums occur, we would obtain an infinite set of values .

<u>Population</u>:-

The total of observations which we are concerned , whether this number is finite or infinite , this is called the<u> population</u>

The number of observations in the population is defined to be the size of the population.

<u>Example</u> :- If there are 600 students in the school that we classified according to blood group, we say that the population of size is 600.

<u>Sample</u>:- A sample is subset of a population

Therefore in given data

The college students are best describes the population

Female college students , part -time college students , and female part-time college students are samples it will come from population
