Answer:

(a) 12 hours

(b) $220

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) First we plug in $364 for C

C=76+24h

364=76+24h

Subtract 76 from both sides

24h=288

Divide both sides by 24

h=12

She spent 12 hours fixing the drain

(b) First we plug 6 hours in for h

C=76+24(6)

Multiply it out

C=76+144

Add

C=220

It costs $220 for fixing a drain that takes 6 hours

Total blood cholesterol level was measured for each of

<h3>Answer: Mean = 218.9.</h3><h3>Median = 229</h3><h3>Mode = Zero mode.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given blood cholesterol level was measured for each of 8 adults (in mg/dL) are:

264, 191, 160, 148, 262, 212, 268, 246

In order to find the mean, we need to add all those 8 numbers and divide by 8.

Therefore, mean = \frac{264+191+160+148+262+212+268+246}{8} =\frac{1751}{8} =218.9.

<h3>Mean = 218.9.</h3>

In order to find the median, we need to arrange them in ascending order:

148, 160, 191, 212, 246, 262, 264, 268.

The middle most two values are 212 and  246.

Therefore, median = \frac{212+246}{2} =\frac{458}{2} = 229.

<h3>Median = 229.</h3>

\mathrm{The\:mode\:is\:the\:term\:in\:the\:data\:set\:that\:appears\:the\:most.}

\mathrm{If\:there\:is\:more\:than\:one\:term\:that\:appears\:the\:most,\:then\:there\:is\:no\:mode.}

\mathrm{Count\:the\:number\:of\:times\:each\:element\:appears\:in\:the\:list}

\begin{pmatrix}148&160&191&212&246&262&264&268\\ 1&1&1&1&1&1&1&1\end{pmatrix}

\mathrm{The\:most\:common\:element\:is\:not\:unique,\:so\:there\:is\:no\:mode}

<h3>Therefore, Mode = Zero mode.</h3>

Howard Slater age 44 an actor expected his income to the coin future years he decides to take out a 20-year payment life policy
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Individuals end to continue paying the premiums of the automobile insurance as a habit. However, serious thoughts and putting in element of strategizing helps to reduce the premium in most cases. At times, there is a sudden like on the part of the insurer even for a flawless driver.

A good look up and research of the insurance websites can be of real help in comparing whether a better deal is offered by the other insurance companies, or whether a certain change in the policy or small adjustments of the term would give benefit to the customer.

In case a speeding ticket is received, or an accident is mentioned in the driving history, it is maintained there in for a period of three to five years. Thus, the premium increases substantially. A change of insurer is advised in such situations, where a major search for an insurer, who does not pay that much importance to these details, is to be carried on.

Again, having a teenager driver in the family calls for a caution as the insurance premium increases drastically in such occasion. Having clean driving record of the parents, or kids commuting to far away schools without cars help in such situation.
