Answer:

The number is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

12 less than 7 times a number can be express as follows,

let the number = a

7a - 12

According to the question the number 7a - 12 is equals to 32 less than the product of - 3 and the number.

32 less than the product of -3 and the number can be express below.

-3a - 32. Therefore,

7a - 12 = -3a - 32

collect like terms

7a + 3a = - 32 + 12

10a = -20

divide both sides by 10

a = -20/10

a = -2

The number is -2

Answer:

For 99% of confidence interval is 67.5±1.3524

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean height =67.5 inches

Standard deviation:2.1 inches

Z at 99%.

No of samples 16.

To find:

confidence interval

Solution:

We have formula for confidence interval,

=mean ±Z*{standard deviation/sqrt(no.of observation)}

Now

Z=99%

has standard value as ,

Z=2.576

Confidence interval= mean±Z{standard deviation/sqrt(No. of samples)}

=67.5±2.57{(2.1/sqrt(16)}

=67.5±2.576(2.1/4)

=67.5±1.3524
