x ,y are the numbers

x = 5y-3

x+y = 27

substitute first equation into the second

(5y-3) +y =27

combine like terms

6y-3=27

add 3 to each side

6y=30

divide by 6

y=5

x = 5y-3

x=5*5-3

x=22

the two numbers are 22 and 5

There are 14 values above. The mean of these 14 numbers is calculated by dividing their sum by 14 which will give us an answer of 117.07 or ~117. The smallest of these values is 69 which is 48 units to the left of the average. The largest value is 189 which is 72 units to the right of the average.

Ivahew [28]

Answer with  explanation:

A x% confidence interval interprets that a person can be x% confident thatthe true mean lies in it.

Here, Credit card companies is using the collection agency to justify the cost of , the agency must collect an average of at least $200 per customer.

i.e. H_0:\mu \geq200,\ \ \ H_a:\mu

The 90% confidence interval on the mean collected amount was reported as ($190.25, $250.75) .

I recommend that we can be 90% sure that the true mean collected amount  lies in ($190.25, $250.75).

Also, $200 lies in it such that it is more far from $250.75 than $190.25, that means there are large chances of having an average is at least $200 per customer.
