It takes Peter 4 hours to walk 12 miles. If he continues to walk at the same rate, how long will it take him to walk: a) 7miles. b)11miles?

a]2.3 hrs

b]3.6hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

4hrs = 12 miles

x       =  7miles

4 x 7=28/12=2.3

4 x 11=44/12=3.6hrs

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

His rate of walking =  12/4 = 3 miles per hour.

So the times for 7 and  11 miles are

(a)  7/3 = 2 1/3 hours.

(b) 11/3 = 3 2/3 hours.

solution:

as, mean is defined as sum of all the observations divided by total number of observations.

and , median is mid value of the data whether arranged in ascending order or descending order.

consider, roadsters:

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

mean =

also, median= , because number of observations is even, so median is mean of two mid values.

now, coming to bandits

2,3,4,5,6

mean =  

median = 4, as number of observations is odd.

so, roadsters has greater median as well mean than bandits.

→option a is true about the repairs performed on 2 types of cars:

bandits have lower median and mean than roadsters.
