Answer:

Andy went as furthest as possible with a gallon of gasoline

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

m ----> the distance in miles

g ----> the number of gallons of gas

step 1

Kelley's Mileage

Find the slope of the linear function of Kelley's Mileage

we have the points

(0,0) and (20,50)

$slope=(50-0)/(20-0)\\slope=2.5\ miles/gallon$

the linear equation is

$m=2.5g$

step 2

Andy's Mileage

Find the slope of the linear function of Andy's Mileage

we have the points

(15,78.75) and (30,157.5)

$slope=(157.5-78.75)/(30-15)\\slope=5.25\ miles/gallon$

the linear equation is

$m=5.25g$

step 3

Rick's Mileage

we have

$m=4.8g$

therefore

the slope is $4.8\ miles/gallon$

step 4

Compare the slopes

$5.25\ miles/gallon > 4.8\ miles/gallon > 2.5\ miles/gallon$

therefore

Andy went as furthest as possible with a gallon of gasoline

Answer:

Event is not unusual(p>0.05).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

$p=0.10\\\\n=1100\\\\x=121$

#The sample proportion is calculated as:

$\hat p=\frac{x}{n}\\\\=\frac{121}{1100}\\\\=0.1100$

#Mathematically, the z-value is the value decreased by the mean then divided the standard deviation :

$z=\frac{\hat p- p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\\\\\\\\=\frac{0.11-0.10}{\sqrt{\frac{0.10(1-0.10)}{1100}}}\\\\\\=1.1055$

#We use the normal probability table to determine the corresponding probability;

$P(X\geq 121)=P(Z>1.1055)\\\\=0.1314$

Hence, the probaility is more than 0.05, thus the event not unusual and thus this is not necessarily evidence that the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly has increased.
