<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

Suppose that a new fuel-efficient European car travels an average of 28 kilometers on 1 liter of gasoline. If gasoline costs 1.50 euros per liter, how much will it cost to drive 220 kilometers ?

step 1

using proportion

Find out the number of liters of gasoline needed for 220 kilometers

$\frac{28}{1}\ \frac{Km}{L}=\frac{220}{x}\ \frac{Km}{L}\\\\x=220/28\\\\x=7.86\ L$

step 2

Find the cost to drive 220 kilometers

Multiply the cost of one liter of gasoline by the total liters of gasoline needed to travel 220 Km

$1.50(7.86)=11.79\ euros$

There are two calculus classes at your school. Both classes have a class average of 75.5. The first class has a standard deviati

Korvikt [17]

To compare the two classes, the Coefficient of Variation (COV) can be used. The formula for COV is this:
C = s / x
where s is the standard deviation and x is the mean
For the first class:
C1 = 10.2 / 75.5
C1 = 0.1351 (13.51%)

For the second class:
C2 = 22.5 / 75.5
C2 = 0.2980 (29.80%)

The COV is a test of homogeneity. Looking at the values, the first class has more students having a grade closer to the average than the second class.
