Let x=the smallest integer, x+1=the second smallest, x+2=the greatest.
x+x+1+x+2=141
3x+3=141
3x=138
x=46
46 is the smallest integer

Our three consecutive integers can be represented as

X → first integer

X + 1 → second integer

X + 2 → third integer

If the sum of our three consecutive integers is 141, our equation will read...

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 141

Now, we can simplify on the left. Once we simplify, our equation will now read

3x + 3 = 141

      -3     -3  ← subtract 3 on both sides

      3x = 138 ← divide by 3 on both sides

       <u>X = 46</u> ← smallest integer

Therefore, the smallest integer is 46.

Which of the following is not true about the standard error of a statistic?
aniked [119]

Answer:

Only option d is not true

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are four statements about standard errors and we have to find which is not true.

A. The standard error measures, roughly, the average difference between the statistic and the population parameter.

-- True because population parameter is mean and the statistic are the items.  Hence the differences average would be std error.

B. The standard error is the estimated standard deviation of the sampling distribution for the statistic.

-- True the sample statistic follows a distribution with standard error as std deviation

C. The standard error can never be a negative number. -- True because we consider only positive square root of variance as std error

D. The standard error increases as the sample size(s) increases

-- False.  Std error is inversely proportional to square root of n.  So when n  decreases std error increases
