For each situation, write the equation to represent each situation. then use your equation to answer each question. be sure to define your variables, identifying which is independent and which is dependent. show all work. round any decimals to the nearest hundredth and choose the correct answer from the choices below.

a plumber charges a customer 60 dollars an hour plus the price of any parts needed to complete the work. if the total bill is 240 dollars and just the parts alone cost 90 dollars, how long did it take to complete the work?

a) 2.5 hours

b) 300 minutes

c) 6.17 hours

d) 4 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.
