Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of robbers be x

If they share 6 rolls each, the tota rolls will be 6x and since they have five remainder, the overall total is then 6x+5

In case they share 7 rolls each, it means they have 7x rolls but here they will be less 8 rolls hence 7x-8 is the overall total.

Equating these two

7x-8=6x+5

Arranging similar terms

7x-6x=8+5

x=13

Therefore, the robbers are 13

The rolla they have will be

6(13)+5=83

7(13)-8=83

consider the following scenario: Assume daily protein intake values in a population of athletes are known to have a standard dev

Kipish [7]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean daily protein intake is between 69.97g and 84.03g.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.025 = 0.975$ , so $z = 1.96$

Now, find M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 1.96*\frac{58.6}{\sqrt{267}} = 7.03$

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 77 - 7.03 = 69.97g.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 77 + 7.03 = 84.03g.

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean daily protein intake is between 69.97g and 84.03g.

Maitri and Aabhas do a work in 12 hours.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Maitri and Aabhas do a work in 12 hours
Aabhas and Kavya do the work in 15 hours
Kavya and Maitri do the work in 20 hours

Solving

Take Maitri, Aabhas, and Kavya to be x, y, z respectively
x + y = 12 (1)
y + z = 15 (2)
x + z = 20 (3)

Take Equation 1 and rewrite it so that it is equal to x.

x = 12 - y

Take Equation 2 and rewrite it so that it is equal to z.

z = 15 - y

Now, substitute these values in Equation 3.

x + z = 20
12 - y + 15 - y = 20
-2y + 27 = 20
2y = 7
y = 7/2 = 3.5 hours [Aabhas]

Substitute the value of y in Equation 1.

x + 3.5 = 12
x = 8.5 hours [Maitri]

Substitute the value of y in Equation 2.

3.5 + z = 15
z = 11.5 hours [Kavya]

Add the values of x, y, and z together.

x + y + z
8.5 + 3.5 + 11.5
12 + 11.5
23.5 hours [together]
