Answer:

The faster computer can do the job in 20 mins on it own.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken by slower computer to do job on its own =30 minutes.

Time taken by both the computers to do the job = 12 mins.

We need to find the Time taken by faster computer to do job on its own.

Solution:

Let the the Time taken by faster computer to do job on its own be 'x'.

Now we know that;

Rate to complete the job is equal to number of jobs divided by time taken to complete the job.

Rate of faster computer = \frac1x

Rate of slower computer = \frac{1}{30}

Rate of both the computers = \frac{1}{12}

Now we can say that;

Rate of both the computers is equal to sum of Rate of faster computer and Rate of slower computer.

framing in equation form we get;

\frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{x}\\\\\frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{12}-\frac{1}{30}

Now we will take the LCM to make the denominator common we get;

\frac{1}{x}=\frac{5}{12\times5}-\frac{2}{30\times2}\\\\\frac1x=\frac{5}{60}-\frac{2}{60}

Now denominator are same so we will solve the numerator.

\frac1x=\frac{5-2}{60}\\\\\frac1x=\frac{3}{60}\\\\\frac1x=\frac{1}{20}\\\\x=20\ mins

Hence The faster computer can do the job in 20 mins on it own.

lianna [129]

Answer:

95 intervals

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

population mean = 100

standard deviation = 15

number of interval that involve the mean for 95% confidence interval is calculated as

We know that when we measure the 99 percent confidence interval, 99 outof 100 confidence interval are required to provide the mean population.

similarly

Assuming we measure a confidence interval of 95 percent, then we  should expect 95 out of 100 confidence interval to provide the mean population therefore, answer is 95
