Answer:

10, 19 and 57

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be a, the second be b and the third be c

a+b+c=86

the second number is 9 less than the first

a=b+9------i

b=a-9

the third number is 3 times the first

c=3a------ii

a=c/3

therefore

b+9=c/3

c=3(b+9)

b+9+b+3(b+9)=86

b+9+b+3b+27=86

collecting like terms

5b=86-(27+9)

5b=86-36

5b=50

therefore

b=10

recall i to solve for a

a=b+9

a=10+9

a=19

recall ii to solve for c

c=3a

c=3*19

c=57

valkas [14]

Answer:

t=\frac{1.8-2}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{48}}}=-2.771    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=48-1=47  

And the p value would be:

p_v =P(t_{(47)}    

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean for this case for the growth rate is less than 2cm per week

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=1.8 represent the sample mean for the growth

s=0.5 represent the sample standard deviation    

n=48 sample size    

\mu_o =2 represent the value that we want to compare

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level

t would represent the statistic    

p_v represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is less than 2cm per week, the system of hypothesis are :    

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 2    

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 2    

Since we don't know the population deviation the statistic is given by:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)    

Replacing the info given we got:

t=\frac{1.8-2}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{48}}}=-2.771    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=48-1=47  

And the p value would be:

p_v =P(t_{(47)}    

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean for this case for the growth rate is less than 2cm per week
