Answer:

0.25n>0.15n+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality:

Since Purple taxi charges 0.25 per mile, the cost of using Purple taxi is:

0.25n  

Where n is the number of miles.

ABC Taxi charges $3 for pick-up and $0.15 per mile

So, the cost for using ABC taxi is equal to the fixed fee per pick up (3) , plus the cost per mile (0.15n)

3+0.15n

To find the number of miles, n, for which the cost of a cab ride with Purple Taxi exceeds the cost of a cab ride with ABC Taxi, the cost of a cab ride with purple taxi must be higher (>) than the cost of a cab ride with ABC taxi.

0.25n>0.15n+3

Convert the radian measure to degrees. (Round to the nearest hundredth when necessary): 7π/3
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

400 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : To convert radians to degrees, multiply the given radian by 180/pi

7pi/3 x 180/pi

Step 2 : Cancel pi

7/3 x 180

= 420 degrees

Step 3 : Round it to nearest 100

Since 20 is closer to 400 than 500 therefore it will be rounded off to

400 degrees

"Which diagram below shows the first step in parallel line construction on a point outside a line?
mote1985 [20]

<u>Answer</u>

2nd diagram


<u>Explanation.</u>

When contraction a parallel line from a point say N, outside the line, the first thing is to draw a line from point N to the that line.

The point where this line from N intersect with line, name it say P. From this point you can use the properties of angles in a parallel lines to construct the parallel line.

The line NP can act like a transverse of the two parallel lines. The diagram 2 shows first step.

qaws [65]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average is measure of central tendency that is also called sample mean and is calculated from the following formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

This is an estimator of the population mean and is unbiased since the expected value for the estimator is the same parameter as we can see here:

E(\bar X)=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n E(X_i)}{n} =\frac{n\mu}{n}=\mu

And is important because is the most common measure of central tendency reported on any study.

Is important to remember that this measure can be affected by outliers , for this case when we have outliers is better use the median as a measure of central tendency
