Answer:

10 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The island taxi charges $5 for initial fee and $2 per mile.

For the island taxi to be $25 it would have to drive for 10 miles. (25-5=20) due to the initial fee puts you at 20. 20÷2 is 10. Meaning 10 miles for the island taxi.

Since the lyft charges a flat rate of $25 for any distance the only distance that matters is the island taxi.

Your answer is 10 miles.

What is the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the values? Round to the nearest tenth. 1,9,4,12,13,13
tankabanditka [31]

To compute the mean, you simply have to sum all the elments in the data set and the divide the sum by the number of elements:


M = \frac{1+4+9+12+13+13}{6} = \frac{52}{6} = 8.6


To compute the variance, we first need to compute the distance of each element from the mean. To do so, we build a "parallel" dataset, given by the difference of every value and the mean:


D' = 1-8.6,9-8.6,4-8.6,12-8.6,13-8.6,13-8.6


D' = -7.6, 0.4, -4.6, 3.4, 4.4, 4.4


Now we need those difference squared:


(D')^2 = 57.76, 0.16, 21.16, 11.56, 19.36, 19.36


The variance is the mean of this new vector, so


\sigma^2 = \frac{57.76+ 0.16+ 21.16+ 11.56+ 19.36+ 19.36}{6} = \frac{129.36}{6} = 21.6


Finally, the standard deviation is simply the square root of the variance, so you have


\sigma = \sqrt{21.6} = 4.6

How do you do 720 divided by 10 with the exponet of 3
Allisa [31]
If you mean 720/10^3, you do 10*10*10. This equals 1000. Now, do 720/1000. This is 0.72, or 72/100, which is your answer.
