<span>Let n be the number of taxis in NY. The average distance travelled is 60,000 miles, therefore the middle 95% will have the same average as the population, the reason being the mileage is symmetrically distributed about the mean Therefore the total number of miles in one year for the middle 95% is 60,000 * 0.95 * n
</span><span>The range of miles driven by the middle 95% can be found from the empirical rule that says: For a normal distribution, approximately 95% of the data points lie within the range plus and minus 2 standard deviations of the population mean. In this case the range is (60,000-22,000) to (60,000 + 22,000)</span>

Answer:

1) 12

2) c=-25

3) x = -16 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) ..........................

  • 6*(4-10+8) =
  • 6*(- 6+8) =
  • 6*2=
  • 12

2) ..........................

  • 34 + 2c = -16
  • 2c = - 16 -34
  • 2c = -50
  • c = -50/2
  • c=-25

3) ..........................

  • 40 = -3x - 10
  • 40+ 10 = -3x
  • -3x = 50
  • x = 50/-3
  • x=-16 2/3
