Answer 1

Answer:

(B)Mr Smith drove 3 miles per day  more than Ms. Johnson.

(D) A reasonable prediction is that both  salespeople will drive about 110

miles each day.

(F)If both salespeople work 250 days  this year, they will drive about

27,500 miles for this year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the miles driven by the two salesman.

Mr Smith

128 , 150 , 118 , 85 , 166 and 25

$\text{Average miles per day}=\dfrac{128+150+118+85+166+25}{6}=\dfrac{672}{6}\\=112 miles per day$

Ms. Johnson

115,97,86,48,181 and 127

$\text{Average miles per day}=\dfrac{115+97+86+48+181+127}{6}=\dfrac{654}{6}\\=109 miles per day$

Therefore:

(B)Mr Smith drove 3 miles per day  more than Ms. Johnson.

(D) A reasonable prediction is that both  salespeople will drive about 110

miles each day.

$112 \approx 110 miles per day\\109 \approx 110 miles per day$

(F)If both salespeople work 250 days  this year, they will drive about

27,500 miles for this year.

110 X 250=27,500 miles
