Flat fee:  $1.25; cost per mile:  $0.75.  Cost per x miles:  ($0.75)x.

Therefore:  $14 = $1.25 + $0.75x.  Solve this for x:

$12.75 = $0.75x.  Divide both sides by $0.75:    x = $12.75 / $0.75 = 17

He can afford to ride up to 17 miles in the taxi.

The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 40 it. The length is 2 ft more than the width. Find the length and the width of the gar
alexgriva [62]

Answer: Length = 11

              Width = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the unknown length.

Let x - 2 represent the unknown width.

The perimeter is equal to 2 times x + (x -2)

Equation:

2 (x + (x - 2)) = 40

x + (x - 2) = 40/2

x + x - 2 = 20

2x - 2 = 20

2x -2 + 2 = 20 + 2

The length is: 2x = 22 -> x = 22/2 -> x = 11

The width is: x - 2 = 9

(i) Represent these two sets of data by a back-to-back stem-and-leaf diagram.
alexgriva [62]
<h3>Answer: </h3>

{\begin{tabular}{lll}\begin{array}{r|c|l}\text{Leaf (Ali)} & \text{Stem} & \text{Leaf (Kumar)}\\\cline{1-3} 7 & 4 & 1\ 2\ 3\ 6\ 6\ 9\ 9 \\  9\ 8 & 5 & 2\ 2\ 3\\  5\ 5 & 6 & \\  7\ 2\ 0 & 7 & 8\ 8\ 9\\  9\ 9\ 8\ 4\ 3\ 3\ 3\ 1\ 1 & 8 & 2\ 2\ 4\ 5\\  9\ 8\ 1 & 9 & 0\ 2\ 5\\  \end{array} \\\\ \fbox{\text{Key: 7} \big| \text{4} \big| \text{1 means 4.7 for Ali and 4.1 for Kumar}} \end{tabular}}

=========================================================

Explanation:

The data set for Ali is

8.3, 5.9, 8.3, 8.9, 7.7, 7.2, 8.1, 9.1, 9.8, 5.8,

8.3, 4.7, 7.0, 6.5, 6.5, 8.4, 8.8, 8.1, 8.9, 9.9

which when on a single line looks like this

8.3, 5.9, 8.3, 8.9, 7.7, 7.2, 8.1, 9.1, 9.8, 5.8, 8.3, 4.7, 7.0, 6.5, 6.5, 8.4, 8.8, 8.1, 8.9, 9.9

Let's sort the values from smallest to largest

4.7, 5.8, 5.9, 6.5, 6.5, 7.0, 7.2, 7.7, 8.1, 8.1, 8.3, 8.3, 8.3, 8.4, 8.8, 8.9, 8.9, 9.1, 9.8, 9.9

Now lets break the data up into separate rows such that each time we get to a new units value, we move to another row

4.7

5.8, 5.9

6.5, 6.5

7.0, 7.2, 7.7

8.1, 8.1, 8.3, 8.3, 8.3, 8.4, 8.8, 8.9, 8.9

9.1, 9.8, 9.9

We have these stems: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 which represent the units digit of the values. The leaf values are the tenths decimal place.

For example, a number like 4.7 has a stem of 4 and leaf of 7 (as indicated by the key below)

This is what the stem-and-leaf plot looks like for Ali's data only

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{Ali's data set}\\\\{\begin{tabular}{ll}\begin{array}{r|l}\text{Stem} & \text{Leaf}\\ \cline{1-2}4 & 7 \\ 5 & 8\ 9 \\ 6 & 5\ 5 \\ 7 & 0\ 2\ 7 \\ 8 & 1\ 1\ 3\ 3\ 3\ 4\ 8\ 9\ 9 \\ 9 & 1\ 8\ 9\\ \end{array} \\\\ \fbox{\text{Key: 4} \big| \text{7 means 4.7}} \\ \end{tabular}}

The stem-and-leaf plot condenses things by tossing out repeated elements. Instead of writing 8.1, 8.1, 8.3 for instance, we can just write a stem of 8 and then list the individual leaves 1, 1 and 3. We save ourselves from having to write two more copies of '8'

Through similar steps, this is what the stem-and-leaf plot looks like for Kumar's data set only

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{Kumar's data set}\\\\{\begin{tabular}{ll}\begin{array}{r|l}\text{Stem} & \text{Leaf}\\ \cline{1-2}4 & 1\ 2\ 3\ 6\ 6\ 9\ 9 \\ 5 & \ 2\ 2\ 3\  \  \  \   \\ 6 & \\ 7 & 8\ 8\ 9 \\ 8 & 2\ 2\ 4\ 5\\ 9 & 0\ 2\ 5\\ \end{array} \\\\ \fbox{\text{Key: 4} \big| \text{1 means 4.1}} \\ \end{tabular}}

Kumar doesn't have any leaves for the stem 6, so we will have that section blank. It's important to have this stem so it aligns with Ali's stem plot.

Notice that both stem plots involve the same exact set of stems (4 through 9 inclusive).

What we can do is combine those two plots into one single diagram like this

{\begin{tabular}{lll}\begin{array}{r|c|l}\text{Leaf (Ali)} & \text{Stem} & \text{Leaf (Kumar)}\\\cline{1-3} 7 & 4 & 1\ 2\ 3\ 6\ 6\ 9\ 9 \\  8\ 9 & 5 & 2\ 2\ 3\\  5\ 5 & 6 & \\  0\ 2\ 7 & 7 & 8\ 8\ 9\\  1\ 1\ 3\ 3\ 3\ 4\ 8\ 9\ 9 & 8 & 2\ 2\ 4\ 5\\  1\ 8\ 9 & 9 & 0\ 2\ 5\\  \end{array} \\  \end{tabular}}

Then the last thing to do is reverse each set of leaves for Ali (handle each row separately). The reason for this is so that each row of leaf values increases as you further move away from the stem. This is simply a style choice. This is somewhat similar to a number line, except negative values aren't involved here.

This is what the final answer would look like

{\begin{tabular}{lll}\begin{array}{r|c|l}\text{Leaf (Ali)} & \text{Stem} & \text{Leaf (Kumar)}\\\cline{1-3} 7 & 4 & 1\ 2\ 3\ 6\ 6\ 9\ 9 \\  9\ 8 & 5 & 2\ 2\ 3\\  5\ 5 & 6 & \\  7\ 2\ 0 & 7 & 8\ 8\ 9\\  9\ 9\ 8\ 4\ 3\ 3\ 3\ 1\ 1 & 8 & 2\ 2\ 4\ 5\\  9\ 8\ 1 & 9 & 0\ 2\ 5\\  \end{array} \\\\ \fbox{\text{Key: 7} \big| \text{4} \big| \text{1 means 4.7 for Ali and 4.1 for Kumar}} \end{tabular}}

The fact that Ali is on the left side vs Kumar on the right, doesn't really matter. We could swap the two positions and end up with the same basic table. I placed Ali on the left because her data set is on the top row of the original table given.

The thing you need to watch out for is that joining the stem and leaf for Ali means you'll have to read from right to left (as opposed to left to right). Always start with the stem. That's one potential drawback to a back-to-back stem-and-leaf plot. The advantage is that it helps us compare the two data sets fairly quickly.
