Consecutive numbers are 1 apart
they are
x,x+1,x+2,x+3,x+4

average is 21
(x+x+1+x+2+x+3+x+4)/5=21
(5x+10)/5=21
times both sides by 5
5x+10=105
minus 10 both sides
5x=95
divide both sides by 5
x=19
x+1=20
x+2=21
x+3=22
x+4=23


the smallest number is 19

The number of students who attended Albany Medical College last year was 1000. This year, attendance has increased to 1350 stude
NeTakaya
First you have to subtract 1350-1000 to get 350. Then you have to make 350/1000 into a percent. First you have to turn it into a decimal. In the fraction 350/1000 can be reduced to 35/100. In decimal form it would be 0.35. In pecentage form it would be 35%. The percentage difference of the student population would be 35%.

Anna11 [10]

A statistics student would like to estimate the average age of students at her college. she would like to be 85% confident that her estimate includes the actual college population mean

It means confidence level is 0.85.

After taking survey the estimate of population standard deviation is found as 4.5 years. The given margin of error is 0.5 years

The sample size is obtained using formula

n= (\frac{z_{\alpha/2} std}{ME} )^{2}

Where std = standard deviation

alpha = 1 -c = 1-0.85 = 0.15

z(α/2) = z(0.15/2) = z(0.075)

It is the critical value of z such that area above z and below -z is 0.075

Use z score table to find the probability exactly or very close to 0.075 and note the corresponding z score value.

In z score table there is no accurate 0.075 probability value. The close value is 0.0749 which corresponds to z score -1.44

For calculation we take positive z score value.

So we get z(α/2) =1.44

Using all the given values into formula

n = [(1.44 * 4.5) / 0.5]^2

n = 167.96

Rounding it to nearest integer we get n=168

The number of people need to surveyed is n=168
