Answer:

3 customers brought all the three papers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, D, O and N represents the three newspapers.

D = The daily times

O = The observer

N = The new Nigeria.

According to the given information,

n(D\cup O\cup N)=135, n(D)=70,n(O)=60,n(N)=50

n(D\cap O)=17, n(O\cap N)=15, n(D\cap N)=16

We know that,

n(A\cup B\cup C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C)-n(A\cap B)-n(B\cap C)-n(C\cap A) + n(A\cap B\cap C)

Using this formula, we get

n(D\cup O\cup N) = n(D)+n(O) + n(N)-n(D\cap O)-n(O\cap N)-n(N\cap D) + n(D\cap O\cap N)

135 =70+60+50-17-15-16 +n(D\cap O\cap N)

135 =132+n(D\cap O\cap N)

135 -132=n(D\cap O\cap N)

3=n(D\cap O\cap N)

Therefore, 3 customers brought all the three papers.

2) 6 * 6 = 36

3) 15000 - 36 = 14964

4) 14964 / 2.5 = 5985.6

5) But you can't fit almost half a person inside or create another whole person soo you round down to 5985

A doctor is measuring the average height of male students at a large college. The doctor measures the heights, in inches, of a s
denpristay [2]

Answer:

For this case the  95% confidence interval is given (63.5 , 74.4) and we want to conclude about the result. For this case we can say that the true mean of heights for male students would be between 63.5 and 74.4. And the best answer would be:

b. The doctor can be 95% confident that the mean height of male students at the college is between 63.5 inches and 74.4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation

\bar X represent the sample mean for the sample  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:  

\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n} (2)  

s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}} (3)  

In order to calculate the critical value t_{\alpha/2} we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

df=n-1=40-1=39

For this case the  95% confidence interval is given (63.5 , 74.4) and we want to conclude about the result. For this case we can say that the true mean of heights for male students would be between 63.5 and 74.4. And the best answer would be:

b. The doctor can be 95% confident that the mean height of male students at the college is between 63.5 inches and 74.4 inches.
