Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a table showing  the​ weights, in hundreds of​ pounds, for six selected cars. Also shown is the corresponding fuel​ efficiency, in miles per gallon​ (mpg), for the car in city driving.

Weight Fuel eff. x^2 xy y^2

Covariance -553.8611111    

     

     

r -0.341120235    

Correlaton coefficient =cov (xy)/S_x S_y

Covariance (x,y) = E(xy)-E(x)E(y)

The correlation coefficient between the weight of a car and the fuel efficiency is -0.341

Solution Given number 1 : Peaches => 0.5 pound = meaning, ½ pound is available, And 1 pound of it costs 0.80 dollars. Let’s solve: => 0.80 dollars * 0.5 => 0.40 dollars – the price of the peaches. Given number 2 : Oranges => 0.7 pounds of oranges, meaning less than 1 pound. And 1 pound costs 0.90 dollars Let’s solve to get the anwer => 0.7 * .90 => 0.63 dollars – the costs of 0.7 pounds of oranges,

A new car costs $8000 at full price. With a sales tax of 5.75%, how much will the car cost in total?​
ioda

Answer:

$8460

Step-by-step explanation:

So for this problem we will use the base price of $8000 and add the additional cost of the 5.75% to find the total cost for the car.

So, to find the 5.75%, we simply multiply 8000 by .0575 to get 460.

So 8000 + 460 = 8460.

Thus, the total price of the car would be $8460.

Cheers.
