A university was interested in examining the overall effectiveness of its online statistics course, along with the effectiveness

of particular aspects of the course. First, the university wanted to see whether the online course was better than a standard course. Second, the university wanted to know whether students learned best using Excel, using Minitab, or using no statistical package at all. The university randomly selected a group of 30 students and administered one of the different variants of the course (i.e., traditional or online, coupled with one of the three software options) to each student. The success of each variant was measured by the students' average improvement between a pre-test and a post-test.

In February, Paul's electric bill was three dollars more than one-half his gas bill. If the electric bill was ninety-two dollars
Lostsunrise [7]
Let us assume the gas bill of Paul in February = x dollars
Then
Electric bill of Paul for the month of February = (x/2) + 3
Amount of Electricity bill of Paul for the month of February = $92
then we can write the equation as
(x/2) + 3 = 92
x/2 = 92 - 3
x/2 = 89
x = 89 * 2
   = 178 dollars
So the gas bill of Paul in February is $178. I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
