Just substract corresponding terms
Option B
Let the average cost of car in 2009 be $x, then the average cost of a car in 2013 is 2x - 5
25,000 = 2x - 5
2x = 25,000 + 5 = 25,005
x = 25,005/2 = $12,502.50
Add 10 to both sides. X is 2. A.
Answer:
Option E is correct.
The expected number of meals expected to be served on Wednesday in week 5 = 74.2
Step-by-step Explanation:
We will use the data from the four weeks to obtain the fraction of total days that number of meals served at lunch on a Wednesday take and then subsequently check the expected number of meals served at lunch the next Wednesday.
Week
Day 1 2 3 4 | Total
Sunday 40 35 39 43 | 157
Monday 54 55 51 59 | 219
Tuesday 61 60 65 64 | 250
Wednesday 72 77 78 69 | 296
Thursday 89 80 81 79 | 329
Friday 91 90 99 95 | 375
Saturday 80 82 81 83 | 326
Total number of meals served at lunch over the 4 weeks = (157+219+250+296+329+375+326) = 1952
Total number of meals served at lunch on Wednesdays over the 4 weeks = 296
Fraction of total number of meals served at lunch over four weeks that were served on Wednesdays = (296/1952) = 0.1516393443
Total number of meals expected to be served in week 5 = 490
Number of meals expected to be served on Wednesday in week 5 = 0.1516393443 × 490 = 74.3
Checking the options,
74.3 ≈ 74.2
Hence, the expected number of meals expected to be served on Wednesday in week 5 = 74.2
Hope this Helps!!!
