Answer: Required equation: 400+25x = 2100
Variable: x = Number of days to donate 2100 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Number of days.
y = Total pounds of food donated in x days.
Given: Initial amount of food = 400 pounds
Pounds of food donated per day = 25
Total food = Initial amount of food + (Pounds of food donated per day ) (Number of days)
y = 400+25x
Their goal is to collect 2100 pounds.
2100 = 400+25x [Substitute y= 2100]
Required equation: 400+25x = 2100
Variable: x = Number of days.
Answer:
As per dot plots we see the distribution of prices is close but majority of prices are concentrated in different zones. So MAD would be more similar by the look.
<u>Let's verify</u>
<h3>Neighborhood 1</h3>
<u>Data</u>
- 55, 55, 60, 60, 70, 80, 80, 80, 90, 120
<u>Mean</u>
- (55*2+ 60*2+ 70+ 80*3 + 90+ 120)/10 = 75
<u>MAD</u>
- (20*2+15*2+5+5*3+15+45)/10 = 15
<h3>Neighborhood 2</h3>
<u>Data</u>
- 100, 110, 110, 110, 120, 120, 120, 140, 150, 160
<u>Mean</u>
- (100 + 110*3+ 120*3+ 140 + 150+ 160)/10 = 124
<u>MAD</u>
- (24+14*3+4*3+16*3+16+26+36)/10 = 20.4
As we see the means are too different (75 vs 124) than MADs (15 vs 20.4).
1/6 (divide each by 2)
4/24 (multiply each by 2)
