Answer:

Thew answer is "40 pounds".

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x pound is $5

It's mixed with 80 pound

Formula:

$\text{Average price} = \frac{\text{Rate of both}}{\text{weight of both}}$

Average price = 3

$\to 3 = \frac{5\times x+ 2\times 80}{x+ 80}$

$\to 3 = \frac{5x+ 160}{x+80}\\\\\to 3(x+80) = 5x+ 160 \\\\\to 3x+240 = 5x+ 160 \\\\\to 240-160 = 5x-3x \\\\\to 80 = 2x \\\\\to 2x=80 \\\\\to x=\frac{80}{2} \\\\\to x= 40$

A news report states that the 99% confidence interval for the mean number of daily calories consumed by participants in a medica

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The sample mean is of 1925 calories.

The margin of error is of 75 calories.

The sample standard deviation is of 109.7992 calories.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample mean:

The sample mean is the mean value of the two bounds of the confidence interval. So

$M = \frac{1850 + 2000}{2} = 1925$

The sample mean is of 1925 calories.

The margin of error

Difference between the bounds and the sample mean. So

2000 - 1925 = 1925 - 1850 = 75 calories.

The margin of error is of 75 calories.

Sample standard deviation:

Here, I am going to expand on the t-distribution.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 18 - 1 = 17

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 17 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995$ . So we have T = 2.898
