Find the mean mileage. The manufacture claimed that the mileage of the model was 16 kmL. Do you agree with this claim?

Verified by Experts


Here `sumf_(i)=50`
`sumf_(i)x_(i)=724`
`"Mean"bar(x)=(sumf_(i)x_(i))/(sumf_(i))`
`(724)/(50)=14.48`
Hence, mean mileage is `14.48kmL^(-)`
No, the manufacturer is claimed mileage `1.52kmh^(-)` more than average mileage.
