Answer:

<em>First.</em> Let us prove that the sum of three consecutive integers is divisible by 3.

Three consecutive integers can be written as k, k+1, k+2. Then, if we denote their sum as n:

n = k+(k+1)+(k+2) = 3k+3 = 3(k+1).

So, n can be written as 3 times another integer, thus n is divisible by 3.

<em>Second. </em>Let us prove that any number divisible by 3 can be written as the sum of three consecutive integers.

Assume that n is divisible by 3. The above proof suggest that we write it as

n=3(k+1)=3k+3=k + k + k +1+2 = k + (k+1) + (k+2).

As k, k+1, k+2 are three consecutive integers, we have completed our goal.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

a. mean = 1000

standard deviation = 4358.9

b. expected value of average damage bar Y = 1000

probability bar y exceeds 2000 = 0.011

Step-by-step explanation:

we have p1 = 95%, y1 = 0, p2 = 5%, y2 = 20000

Mean = (0.95 * 0) + (0.05 * 20000)

= 1000

var(y) = E(y²) - E(Y)²

= we solve for E(y)²

= 0²*0.95 + 20000²*0.05

= 0 + 20000000

then the variance of y = 20000000 - 1000²

=20000000-1000000

= $19000000

standard  deviation is the square root of variance

= √19000000

= 4358.9

2.

a. Expected value of average is also the mean = 1000

b. we are to find probability that barY exceeds 2000

z=\frac{2000-1000}{\sqrt{19000000/100} }

= 1000/435.889

= 2.29

1-p(z≤2.29)

= 1 - 0.989

= 0.011

so the probability that barY exceeds 2000 is 0.011

What is Qualitative Data and what is the discreate and Continuous in qualitative data?
boyakko [2]

Answer:

Qualitative data is the data that is not represented by numbers, for example, favorite food or country.

On the other hand, the quantitative data is represented by numbers and it is classified as discrete and continuous. The discrete data is the data that only can take specific values, for example, the number of people is always a whole number, there can't be 5.5 people. The continuous data is the data that can take decimal values, for example, the mass of an object can be 4.06 kg.

A dataset consists of the composition of 77 breakfast cereals. For each cereal, the number of calories/serving and the grams of
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

50 grams of fat

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line generated by the regression is  

Calories = 110 + 10 (grams of fat), where grams of fat is a variable.  

Since the value of the grams of fat is multiplied by 10, if the two cereals differ by 5 grams of fat per serving, then the caloric content per serving will differ by:

10 x 5 = 50 grams of fat
