Answer: the observer should consider to eliminate or to retake the third measure.
Explanation:
The four measures taken are 124.53, 124.55, 142.51 and 124.52.
As it can be easily seen, the third measure is much different from the other three. This means that something went wrong during the observation: it can be either the measure taken wrong or that the number was written wrong (if you switch the 2 and the 4 you get a number similar to the other ones).
If the third measure is not considered, an estimate of the mean would place it around 124.5, while if the outlier (the detatched number) is considered an estimate of the mean would increase to about 129.
Therefore, in order to obtain a more reliable mean, the observer should consider to eliminate or to retake the third measure.

Answer:
3t+5.25b≥470
Each taco sells for $3, so t tacos will bring in 3t dollars. Each burrito sells for $5.25, so b burritos will bring in 5.25b dollars. Therefore, the total amount of revenue 3t+5.25b must be greater than or equal to $470:
B=cost per boquet
v=cost per vase
3b+5v=25.75
8b+2v=29.00
use eliminateion
divide 2nd equation by 2
4b+v=14.50
multiply it by -5 and add to other equation to eliminate v
-20b-5v=-72.5
<span><u>3b+5v=25.75 +</u></span><u />
-17b+0v=-46.75
-17b=-46.75
divide both sides by -17
b=2.75
a boquet costs $2.75
