Answer:

$4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the mean formula: mean = sum of elements / number of elements

Let x represent the cost of the fifth book, and solve for x:

mean = sum of elements / number of elements

3.25 = (11.75 + x) / 5

16.25 = 11.75 + x

4.5 = x

So, the cost of the fifth book was $4.50

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using formula:

\text{Simple Interest} = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} \\\\\text{ Total amount} = \text{principle}+  \text{Simple Interest}

In question (1):

Principle= \$ 600\\Rate = \ 8 \%\\Time= \ 5

In point a:

\to \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} \\\\\to \frac{(600 \times  8 \times 5)}{100}\\\\ \to  240

In point b:

\to amount = principle \ +\ simple \ interest

                 = 600 + 240 \\\\= 840

In question (2):

Principle= \$ 12,450\\Rate = \ 7.25 \%\\Time= \ 6

In point a:

\to \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} \\\\\to \frac{(12,450 \times  7.25 \times 6)}{100}\\\\ \to  5,415.75

In point b:

\to amount = principle \ +\ simple \ interest

                 = 12,450 + 5,415.75 \\\\= 17,865.75

The 3 question is incomplete, that's why it can't be solved.
