<h3>Answer:  12</h3>

==========================================================

Work Shown:

x = first number

x+1 = second number

x+2 = third number

x+3 = fourth number

x+4 = fifth number

Note how the numbers are one after another. Consecutive numbers follow this pattern. For example: 6,7,8,9,10 are consecutive numbers. One number follows right after the other.

---------------

Add up those five expressions. Set the sum equal to 70 and solve for x

(x)+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4) = 70

(x+x+x+x+x)+(1+2+3+4) = 70

5x+10 = 70

5x = 70-10

5x = 60

x = 60/5

x = 12 is the first number and the smallest number

x+1 = 12+1 = 13 is the second number

x+2 = 12+2 = 14 is the third number

x+3 = 12+3 = 15 is the fourth number

x+4 = 12+4 = 16 is the fifth number

Check:

12+13+14+15+16 = 70

which confirms our answer

-----------------

You could use a guess and check method, but the algebraic approach is much more efficient.

rodikova [14]

When a line changes position from one point to another, the movement is referred to as transition.

<em>Bobby does not have enough information to make a valid conclusion.</em>

The movements of the lines are given as:

<em>Line 1: 3 units up and 8 units right</em>

<em>Line 2: 8 units down and 3 units right</em>

The given information only describes the movement of both lines, but does not give details about the initial relationship between the lines.

<em>Hence, no valid conclusion can be made with the given information.</em>

H1: μd > 0

SWe have to find the value of s

we would use this formula s = sqrt [ (Σ(di - d)^2 / (n - 1) ]

This gives us  3.454

Next we have to determine the standard error

s / √(n)

3.454/2.8284

= 1.22

Degree of freedom = 8 - 1

= 7

t = (x1 - x2) - D / S.E

=  1.025

Find t critical at 0.10

= 1.895

P-value = 0.1697

d. Given that p value is greater thatn 0.1 we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
