Ahmad and Kumar together can paint a house in 12 days. Kumar and Chong beng together can complete the same job in 15 days while Ahmad and Chong beng together will take 20 days to paint the same house. How many days will it take Ahmad, Kumar and Chong beng to complete the job together?



The trick (SOP) for work problems is that we reduce the work to unit rate.

Ahmad and Kumar together can paint a house in 12 days.--->Ahmad and Kumar together can paint 1/12 the house in 1 days.

A+K = 1/12 of house in a day
K+C= 1/15 of house in a day
A+C= 1/20 of house in a day

Adding all together

2(A+K+C) = 1/12+1/15/+1/20 = 1/5 in a day
A+K+C = 1/10 in a day

So they take 10 days to finish the job together.

Helen [10]

Answer:

s^2 = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}

But we need to calculate the mean with the following formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_I}{n}

And replacing we got:

\bar X = \frac{ 1.04+1.00+1.13+1.08+1.11}{5}= 1.072

And for the sample variance we have:

s^2 = \frac{(1.04-1.072)^2 +(1.00-1.072)^2 +(1.13-1.072)^2 +(1.08-1.072)^2 +(1.11-1.072)^2}{5-1}= 0.00277\ approx 0.003

And thi is the best estimator for the population variance since is an unbiased estimator od the population variance \sigma^2

E(s^2) = \sigma^2

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following data:

1.04,1.00,1.13,1.08,1.11

And in order to estimate the population variance we can use the sample variance formula:

s^2 = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}

But we need to calculate the mean with the following formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_I}{n}

And replacing we got:

\bar X = \frac{ 1.04+1.00+1.13+1.08+1.11}{5}= 1.072

And for the sample variance we have:

s^2 = \frac{(1.04-1.072)^2 +(1.00-1.072)^2 +(1.13-1.072)^2 +(1.08-1.072)^2 +(1.11-1.072)^2}{5-1}= 0.00277\ approx 0.003

And thi is the best estimator for the population variance since is an unbiased estimator od the population variance \sigma^2

E(s^2) = \sigma^2
