Assessment: Buying a Car A consumer is considering two different purchasing options for the car of their choice. The first
option, which is leasing, is described by the equation 250x - y + 4000 = 0 where x represents the
- number of months of ownership and y represents the total paid for the car after 'x' months. The
second option, which is the financing option, will cost $400 for 0 months of ownership, (0,400),
and $4400 for 10 months of ownership, (10, 4400).
Part A:
Find the equations, in slopely-intercept form, for each of the purchasing options. Explain the significance
of the slope and y-intercept for each purchasing option.
Part B:
Graph each equation on the same set of axes and compare. Under what conditions is each purchasing
option the best choice? Be sure to provide a thorough answer. Use detailed information from your graph
to back up your choices.

(c) compare the results of parts (a) and (b). in general, how do you think the mode, median, and mean are affected when each data value in a set is multiplied by the same constant? multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean increasing by a factor of c. multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean remaining the same. multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean decreasing by a factor of c. there is no distinct pattern when each data value is multiplied by the same constant. (d) suppose you have information about average heights of a random sample of airline passengers. the mode is 65 inches, the median is 72 inches, and the mean is 65 inches. to convert the data into centimeters, multiply each data value by 2.54. what are the values of the mode, median, and mean in centimeters? (enter your answers to two decimal places.) mode cm median cm mean cm in this problem, we explore the effect on the mean, median, and mode of multiplying each data value by the same number. consider the following data set 7, 7, 8, 11, 15. (a) compute the mode, median, and mean. (enter your answers to one (1) decimal places.) mean value = median = mode = (b) multiply 3 to each of the data values. compute the mode, median, and mean. (enter your answers to one (1) decimal places.) mean value = median = mode = --
