Answer: No, it would not be the mean of the tax paid by all US drivers.

To find the mean, we divided by 50 because there are 50 states. However, the number of people in each state is not equal. Therefore, the 50 states should not be treated as they are equal. 

To find the mean correctly, we would have to find weight the value of each state according to the number of people in the state.

Question 1
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

We will see that the perimeter of the rectangle is exactly 390 ft, so the statement is true.

<h3>Is the fence enough?</h3>

For a rectangle of length L and width W, the perimeter is given by:

P = 2*(L + W).

In this case, we know that:

L = 120 ft

W = 75 ft

Replacing that on the perimeter equation we get:

P = 2*(120 ft + 75  ft) = 390 ft

So the perimeter is exactly 390 ft, meaning that to put a fence around the parking lot the company will need at least 390 ft of fence.

So the statement is correct.
