3. Sarah and James are selling popcorn and cotton candy at the State Fair. Sarah sold 3 bags of popcorn and 9
sticks of cotton candy for a total of $75. James sold 8
bags of popcorn and 5 sticks of cotton candy for a total
of $67. Which is cost of the popcorn and stick of cotton
candy?

solution:

as, mean is defined as sum of all the observations divided by total number of observations.

and , median is mid value of the data whether arranged in ascending order or descending order.

consider, roadsters:

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

mean =

also, median= , because number of observations is even, so median is mean of two mid values.

now, coming to bandits

2,3,4,5,6

mean =  

median = 4, as number of observations is odd.

so, roadsters has greater median as well mean than bandits.

→option a is true about the repairs performed on 2 types of cars:

bandits have lower median and mean than roadsters.

1,645,493,059.35

step-by-step explanation:

answer: all of the odd numbers were opened

the first person was the one that was opening all of the lockers. since one is odd, this causes all of the odd number lockers to be opened in the end.
