Answer:

Colin gets  \frac{2}{9} of the total money

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let the total amount be "90" (or any multiple of 9), then the solution gets much easy.

Let total money be 90.

Caroline gets 1/9, so that is:

1/9 * 90 = 10

Remaining is 90 - 10 = 80

This 80 is divided in the ratio 1:3, that means Colin gets 1 part and Sarah gets 3 part. That is 1 + 3 = 4 parts altogether.

80 divided in 4 parts is 80/4 = 20 each part.

Colin gets 1 part, that is 1 * 20 = 20

Colin gets 20 OUT OF 90 (total initial).

<em>What proportion is that? We simply divide and reduce!!</em>

<em />

20/90 = 2/9

Colin gets  \frac{2}{9} of the total money

A personal trainer determines that an individual will get the most benefit from a workout if they keep their heart rate at an av
Korvikt [17]

Using the confidence interval, it is found that the correct conclusion regarding the hypotheses test is given by:

Reject H0. There is convincing evidence that this individual’s true mean heart rate while working out differs from 150.

<h3>What are the hypotheses tested?</h3>

At the null hypotheses, it is tested if the mean is of 150, that is:

H_0: \mu = 150

At the alternative hypotheses, it is tested if the mean is different of 150, hence:

H_0: \mu \neq 150.

The confidence interval is (158, 167). Since it does not contain 150, we reject the null hypotheses, hence the correct option is:

Reject H0. There is convincing evidence that this individual’s true mean heart rate while working out differs from 150.
