The average value over the interval is the area under the curve divided by the width of the interval.
Area = 4*(6 -1) +5(8 -6) = 30
Width = 8 - 1 = 7
Average value = 30/7 = 4 2/7
Here, we know 1/2 = 0.50
So, the difference between 0.50 & 0.26 is 0.24
And difference between 0 and 0.26 is 0.26
1 is very apart from 0.26 as compared to other two
So, It is closer to 1/2
Hope this helps!
6.75 x 14 will get you 94.5 and if you add another 6.75 you will go to high for your goal so that answer is 14
