Answer: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of marbles in jar = 32
Let blue marbles be represented by b.
Since there are three times as many green marbles as blue. This means that green will be = 3 × b = 3b
We then add them together. This will be:
3b + b = 32
4b = 32
b = 32/4
b = 8
There are 8 blue marbles
Since green is 3× blue. Therefore,
Green = 8 × 3 = 24 marbles
Since the sample size is too small (n = 9, which is less than 10) we cannot use the normal model to describe the entire population.
Therefore, we expect the sample mean to be different from the population mean.
We have no factors to go by
