The mayor of a town places a map of the town on a coordinate grid with Town Hall at the point (0,0) and with each unit represent

ing a mile. Smithville is at the point (-25,10) and Jones City is at (15,12). It costs $0.18 a mile to drive a car. How much does it cost to drive from Smithville and Jones City?

Answer:

Given that the question rightly asks the amount it cost to drive from Smithville to Jones City, we have;

The question rightly asks the amount it cost to drive from Smithville to Jones City is approximately $7.209

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of Smithville is (-25, 10)

The coordinates of Jones City is (15, 12)

The cost of driving a car for a mile = $0.18

Therefore, the distance from Smithville to Jones City is given by the formula for the distance, l, between two points with coordinates as follows;

l = \sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1}  \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1}  \right )^{2}}

Where;

(x₁, y₁) = (-25, 10) and (x₂, y₂) = (15, 12)

l = \sqrt{\left (12-10  \right )^{2}+\left (15-(-25)  \right )^{2}} = 2 \cdot \sqrt{401}

The distance from Smithville to Jones City = 2·√401 ≈ 40.05 miles

The amount, A, it cost to drive from Smithville to Jones City a distance of approximately 40.05 miles is therefore given as follows;

A = 40.05 miles × $0.18 ≈ $7.209

Answer with explanation:

\text{Average}=\frac{\text{Sum of all the observation}}{\text{Total number of Observation}}

Average Height of tallest Building in San Francisco

                    =\frac{260+237+212+197+184+183+183+175+174+173}{10}\\\\=\frac{1978}{10}\\\\=197.8

Average Height of tallest Building in Los Angeles

                    =\frac{310+262+229+228+224+221+220+219+213+213}{10}\\\\=\frac{2339}{10}\\\\=233.9

→→Difference between Height of tallest Building in Los Angeles and  Height of tallest Building in San Francisco

               =233.9-197.8

               =36.1

⇒The average height of the 10 tallest buildings in Los Angeles is 36.1 more than the average height of the tallest buildings in San Francisco.

⇒Part B

Mean absolute deviation for the 10 tallest buildings in San Francisco

 |260-197.8|=62.2

 |237-197.8|=39.2

 |212-197.8|=14.2

 |197 -197.8|= 0.8

 |184 -197.8|=13.8

 |183-197.8|=14.8

 |183-197.8|= 14.8

 |175-197.8|=22.8

 |174-197.8|=23.8

 |173 -197.8|=24.8

Average of these numbers

     =\frac{62.2+39.2+14.2+0.8+13.8+14.8+14.8+22.8+23.8+24.8}{10}\\\\=\frac{231.2}{10}\\\\=23.12

Mean absolute deviation=23.12
