Here we must write and solve a linear equation to find the number of miles that Arun traveled in the taxi. We will find that Eva traveled 11 miles.

So we know that the taxi charges a fee of $4.10 and then a plus of $0.50 per mile.

So if you travel for m miles, the cost equation is:

C(m) = $4.10 + $0.50*m

Now, we know that for Eva the total fare (total cost) was $9.60, then we need to solve:

$9.60 = C(m) = $4.10 + $0.50*m

$9.60 = $4.10 + $0.50*m

$9.60 - $4.10 = $0.50*m

$5.50 = $0.50*m

$5.50/$0.50 = m = 11

This means that Arun traveled 11 miles in the taxi.

Can someone show me how to do Mean absolute deviation
morpeh [17]
To find the mean of a set, add up all of the numbers and divide by how many numbers you have. For the first set:
\mu=\frac{10.7+2.4}2=\frac{13.1}2=6.55
For the second set:
\mu=\frac{13.7+2.5}2=\frac{16.2}2=8.1

To find the mean absolute deviation, (MAD) find the mean of the distances of each number from the mean.
For the first set: 
MAD=\frac{|10.7-6.55|+|2.4-6.55|}2=\frac{4.15+4.15}2=\frac{8.3}2=4.15
For the second set:
MAD=\frac{|13.7-8.1|+|2.5-8.1|}2=\frac{5.6+5.6}2=\frac{11.2}2=5.6
Note that when you only have two data points the mean is directly between them, which is why the distances are the same.

The means-to-MAD ratio is simply that, divide one by the other and that's it.
For the first set:
6.55\div4.15=1.57831325
For the second set:
8.1\div5.6=1.44642857

Answer:

I think the answer is 19

I think that you add odd numbers to get the next number

2+3=5

5+5=10

3+7=10

10+9=19
