Answer:

The mean speed of the automobiles traveling on this road is the closest to 65 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

frequency distribution of speeds.

Speed (mph) | Frequency

45 up to 55 | 70

55 up to 65 | 360

65 up to 75 | 250

75 up to 85 | 110

Using the midpoint method, we represent each group/class of speeds with the midpoint speed, then go ahead to compute the mean.

Let the speed be x

The frequency be f

x | f

50 | 70

60 | 360

70 | 250

80 | 110

Mean = (Σfx)/(Σf)

Σfx = (50×70) + (60×360) + (70×250) + (80×110) = 51,400

Σf = 70 + 360 + 250 + 110 = 790

Mean = (Σfx)/(Σf)

Mean = (51400/790) = 65.06 mph ≈ 65 mph

The mean speed of the automobiles traveling on this road is the closest to 65 mph

Hope this Helps!!!

Preeta’s book has 300 pages. Each day she reads 10 more pages than the day before. She finishes her book in 6 days. How many pag
Scilla [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. if the number of pages in the 1st day is 'x', then the 2d day - 'x+10', the 3d day - 'x+20', the 4th day - 'x+30', the 5th day - 'x+40' and the last day - 'x+50' pages;

2. if the sum of all the pages is 300, then it is possible to make up the equation:

x+x+10+x+20+x+30+x+40+x+50=300;

3. x=25, it means:

1st day - 25;

2d day - 35;

3d day - 45;

4th day - 55;

5th day - 65;

6th day - 75 pages.
