After that incident, the Civil defense team decided to buy new trucks with ladders higher than 100 feet. They found 2 different

trucks with same height of ladders. The first truck costs $145,000 and will cost $0.31 per mile traveled based on the current gas prices. The second truck will cost $160,000 but gets better gas mileage, costing $0.27 per mile. They need to decide which truck is the best deal.

Answer:

the first truck

Step-by-step explanation:

the cost difference between the first truck and the second truck = $160,000-$145,000 = $15,000

the difference of gas cost between the first truck and the second truck = $0.31 - $0.26= $0.05 per mile.

so,

I think, this is a very significant number of truck cost compared with gas cost

for the best deal, the first truck is the best choice.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a table showing  the​ weights, in hundreds of​ pounds, for six selected cars. Also shown is the corresponding fuel​ efficiency, in miles per gallon​ (mpg), for the car in city driving.

Weight Fuel eff. x^2 xy y^2

X Y    

28 20 784 560 400

3 22 9 66 484

35 19 1225 665 361

32 22 1024 704 484

30 23 900 690 529

Mean 26.16666667 21.16666667 797.1666667 549 449.8333333

     

Variance   112.4722222  1.805555556

Covariance -553.8611111    

     

     

r -0.341120235    

Correlaton coefficient =cov (xy)/S_x S_y

Covariance (x,y) = E(xy)-E(x)E(y)

The correlation coefficient between the weight of a car and the fuel efficiency is -0.341
