i did it on my calculator lol
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I always like to use the mean if I can. In this data set, it's probably not a very good idea. Too much weight is given to that 7.2 and the two 3.2s.
I would choose the median, because the mode is the same answer and that's a good enough reason for choosing anything. 2 out 3 isn't bad as they say in Baseball.
Let us assume the regular price of each tube of paint = r.
0.50 off each tube.
New price of each tube = r - 0.50.
She buy 6 tubes.
Total price of 6 tubes = 6×(r-0.50).
We are given total price = $84.30 .
Therefore, we can setup an equation
6×(r-0.50) = 84.30.
Distributing 6 over (r-0.50), we get
6r - 3.0 = 84.30
Adding 3.0 on both sides, we get
6r - 3.0+3.0 = 84.30+3.0
6r = 87.30
Dividing both sides by 6, we get
6r/6 = 87.30/6
r = 14.55
<h3>Therefore, required equation is
6(r-0.50) = 84.30 and the regular price of each tube of paint is $14.55.</h3>
