4x-10+1.5x-4x+11=8.5-6

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-10+1.5x-4x+11=8.5-6

Combine like terms

1.5x+1=2.5

Subtract 1 from each side

1.5x+1-1=2.5-1

1.5x = 1.5

Divide by 1.5

1.5x/1.5 = 1.5/1.5

x=1

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.
