The outlier is the piece of data that does not fit the general data set. In this case, 46 is much higher than all of the other numbers. This is the outlier.
We are given the equation:
F = 2.25+0.2(m-1)
where:
F is the fare
m is the number of miles.
In question 7, we are given that the fare (F) is equal to $6.05 and we need to get the number of miles. To do so, we will simply substitute with the fare in the given equation and solve for the number of miles (m) as follows:
F = 2.25 + 0.2(m-1)
6.05 = 2.25 + 0.2(m-1)
6.05-2.25 = 0.2(m-1)
3.8 = 0.2(m-1)
3.8/0.2 = m-1
19 = m-1
m = 19+1
m = 20 miles
Number 8 is exactly the same, but we will substitute F=7.65 and again solve for m
Instead of X put 5 and instead of y put 2
5+6(2)
5+12= 17
The answer is H to your question
