Answer:

The third number = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

First number = x

Second number = x + 7

Third number = 3x

x + x + 7 + 3x = 62              Combine like terms

5x + 7 = 62                          Subtract 7 from both sides

5x = 62 - 7

5x = 55                                Divide by 5

5x/5 =  55/5

x = 11

Mrs travis wants to have the clown deliver balloons to her secretary's office. Clowns R Fun charges $1.25 per balloon and $6 for
marysya [2.9K]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


6 balloons.


Explanation:


Let x represent the number of balloons purchased.


We will call the function for Clowns R Fun c(x):

c(x) = 1.25x+6


We will call the function for Singing Balloons s(x):

s(x) = 1.95x+2


We want the amount for Clowns R Fun, c(x) to be less:

c(x) < s(x)

1.25x+6 < 1.95x+2


Subtract 1.25x from each side:

1.25x+6-1.25x < 1.95x+2-1.25x

6 < 0.7x+2


Subtract 2 from each side:

6-2 < 0.7x+2-2

4 < 0.7x


Divide each side by 0.7:

4/0.7 < 0.7x/0.7

5.7 < x

x > 5.7

From a random sample of 58 businesses, it is found that the mean time the owner spends on administrative issues each week is 21.
zzz [600]

Answer: (20.86, 22.52)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the confidence interval for population mean :-

\overline{x}\pm z^*\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

, where \overline{x} = sample mean.

z*= critical z-value

n= sample size.

\sigma = Population standard deviation.

By considering the given question , we have

\overline{x}= 21.69

\sigma=3.23

n= 58

Using z-table, the critical z-value for 95% confidence = z* = 1.96

Then, 95% confidence interval for the amount of time spent on administrative issues will be :

21.69\pm (1.96)\dfrac{3.23}{\sqrt{58}}

=21.69\pm (1.96)\dfrac{1.7}{7.61577}

=21.69\pm (1.96)(0.223221)

\approx21.69\pm0.83

=(21.69-0.83,\ 21.69+0.83)=(20.86,\ 22.52)

Hence, the 95% confidence interval for the amount of time spent on administrative issues = (20.86, 22.52)
