Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let first integer = x

so second integer = x + 1

according to question we get the equation,,,,

(x) + (x + 1) < 55

x + x + 1 < 55

2x + 1 < 55

subtract 1 from both sides ,we get

2x < 54

divide both sides by 2 we get ......

x < 27

1st integer = x and x < 27

also as we need sum of integer with greates sum so we take x = 26

and 2nd integer = x+1

= 27 + 1

= 28

now if you add both the integers you get sum = 54 which is less than 55 and so this verify you second condtion also .......

hope this will help you

Answer:

$t=\frac{1.20-1.25}{\frac{0.14}{\sqrt{49}}}=-2.50$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=1.20$ represent the sample mean given

$\sigma = 0.14$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=49$ sample size

$\mu_o =1.25$ represent the value that we want to test

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean for the gasoline prices is lower than 1.25, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 1.25$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 1.25$

If we analyze the size for the sample is > 30 but we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

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

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{1.20-1.25}{\frac{0.14}{\sqrt{49}}}=-2.50$

-34 + 91 = -3 (4x + 1) + 6x

ra1l [238]

$-34 + 91 = -3(4x+1) + 6x\\57 = -12x - 3 + 6x\\6x = -60\\x= -10\\$

Thus x = -10.

Hope that helps!
