The mean is the average, so add all the numbers and divide by 7 (7 terms).
-14 is the sum, divided by 7 = -2
The mean is -2.
Given:
Cost of dishwasher : 315 before sales tax
sales tax : 9.22%
Total cost = 315 * 1.0922 = 344.043
Average of 10 uses per week for the next 6 years before replacing it.
There are 52 weeks in a year.
10 uses per week * 52 weeks per year * 6 years = 3120 average uses
cost for water = 0.09 ; cost for electricity = 0.13 ; total cost per use = 0.22
0.22 * 3120 = 686.40 cost of use
purchase cost = 344.043
cost of use = <u>686.40</u>
lifetime cost 1,030.443
Answer:
Susan has more books than Michael.
Step-by-step explanation:
If Susan has 50% more books and Michael has 40 books, that means Susan has 1.5 times 40 = 60
40 + 8 = 48
60 is more than 48, so Susan has more books than Michael
