Answer:
The correct solution is "[tex](45.5>39) \ mpg[/tex]". A further explanation is provided below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The above query seems to be incomplete. Below is the attachment of the complete question is attached.
Given that,
For SUV,
= 11 (mpg)
For hybrid ghost,
= 65 mpg
Now,
Option 1:
After tuning, the mileage of SUV will be:
= [tex]11+2[/tex]
= [tex]13 \ mpg[/tex]
Average mileage will be:
= [tex]\frac{13+65}{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{78}{2}[/tex]
= [tex]39 \ mpg[/tex]
Option 2:
Given:
Mileage of new hybrid,
= 80 mpg
Now,
Average mileage will be:
= [tex]\frac{11+80}{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{91}{2}[/tex]
= [tex]45.5 \ mpg[/tex]
Thus we can say that the second option gives better mpg as compared to the first one.
i.e.,
⇒ [tex](45.5>39) \ mpg[/tex]
