Answer:

\bar X = \frac{2276}{48}=47.417

If we compare this value with the 47.3 proposed we have the following error

Error = \frac{|Actual-real|}{real}*100 = \frac{|47.417-47.3|}{47.3}*100 =0.247\%

The computed mean is close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is less than 5%.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following dataset:

Speed   42-45  46-49  50-53  54-57  58-61

Freq.         21        15        6           4          2

And we are interested in find the mean, since we have grouped data the formula for the mean is given by:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i f_i}{\sum_{i=1}^n f_i}

And is useful construct a table like this one:

Speed     Freq    Midpoint   Freq*Midpoint

42-45       21            43.5       913.5

46-49       15            47.5        712.5

50-53       6             51.5         309

54-57        4            55.5         222

58-61        2             59.5        119

Total       48                           2276

And the mean is given by:

\bar X = \frac{2276}{48}=47.417

If we compare this value with the 47.3 proposed we have the following error

Error = \frac{|Actual-real|}{real}*100 = \frac{|47.417-47.3|}{47.3}*100 =0.247\%

The computed mean is close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is less than 5%.

**Ms. Gayle is driving to work. She travels 10 miles in 10 minutes. How fast is Ms. Gayle traveling?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

60 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms. Gayle drives 10 miles in just 10 minutes. To find out how fast she was going we need to turn the minutes into hours. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so we multiply the miles and minutes by 60.

Ms. Gayle drives 60 miles in an hour.

This means she is traveling at 60 mph.

I hope that this helps! :)

5+(−4)+(−7)+2 jijujuijuijuijujijuijuijuijiji
Maurinko [17]

Combine the terms. Note that: one positive and one negative sign results in a negative sign.

Simplify: 5 + (-4) = 5 - 4 = 1

1 + (-7) = 1 - 7 = -6

-6 + 2 = -4

-4 is your answer
