Consecutive integers area 1 apart
they are
x,x+1,x+2
sum is
x+x+1+x+2=87
3x+3=87
minus 3 both sides
3x=84
divide both sides by 3
x=28
x+1=29
x+2=30

the smallest number is 28

To do this you need to work backwards. if you note the number as 'n' you can put
 7n = 5600
to find n you simply divide both sides by 7 getting
n = 5600/7 
n = 800

The alternate hypothesis use the sumbol for the population value

Let p be the proportion , Mean be \mu and stadard deviation be \sigma

The null hypothesis states that population value is equal to the value mentioned in the given claim.

H_0:\mu=18 (by given).

The alternate hypothesis for the significance test states that the opposite of the null hypothesis(based on the claim )

∴ H_a:\mu

The symbol "<" because we want to test if the maze is completed faster and thus if the time has decreased.

<h3>∴ option c) H_a:\mu is correct.</h3>
