Answer:

45 kg = Bethan's share

105 kg = Jade's share

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 3x = Bethan's share

4x = Noah's share

7x = Jade's share

Since Noah's share was 60, then 4x = 60

x = 15

3(15) = 45 kg = Bethan's share

7(15) = 105 kg = Jade's share

Margin of error, e = Z*SD/Sqrt (N), where N = Sample population

Assuming a 95% confidence interval and substituting all the values;
At 95% confidence, Z = 1.96

Therefore,
0.23 = 1.96*1.9/Sqrt (N)

Sqrt (N) = 1.96*1.9/0.23

N = (1.96*1.9/0.23)^2 = 262.16 ≈ 263

Minimum sample size required is 263 students.

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Step-by-step explanation:

If X $\sim$ N (µ, σ²), then $Z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ , is a standard normal variate with mean, E (Z) = 0 and Var (Z) = 1. That is, Z $\sim$ N (0, 1).
