Answer:

First Integer = n = 45

Second Integer = n+1 = 45 + 1 = 46

And Third Integer = n+ 2 = 45 +2 = 47

Step-by-step explanation:

Let First integer = n

Second Integer = n+1

Third Integer = n+2

According to the question given (If the first of three consecutive integers is subtracted from 138, the result is the sum of the second and third) the equation will be:

138 - n = (n+1) + (n+2)

Solving the equation:

138 - n = n+1+n+2

138 - n = 2n+3

138 - 3 =2n +n

135 = 3n

135/3 = n

=> n= 45

So, First Integer = n = 45

Second Integer = n+1 = 45 + 1 = 46

And Third Integer = n+ 2 = 45 +2 = 47

A sample of students that had stuffy or runny noses were blindly given a single Skittles candy to put in their mouth. They were
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The confidence interval is  0.2857<  p <  0.4601

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n  =  118  

   The  number that gave the correct answer is  k =  44

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

      \^ p = \frac{44}{118}

=>     \^ p =0.3729

Generally given that the confidence level is  95% the level of significance is mathematically represented as

       \alpha  =  (100 -95) \%

=>     \alpha = 0.05

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

     E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n} }

=>   E =  1.96 * \sqrt{\frac{0.3729(1 - 0.3729)}{118} }

=>    E = 0.0872

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

             \r p -E <  p <  \r p +E

=>    0.3729 -0.0872<  p <  0.3729 +0.0872

=>  0.2857<  p <  0.4601
