Answer 1

The correct answer is $0.54

Answer 2

The cost per cookie, in dollars, for a sugar cookie is A; $0.54.

What are mean?

The mean is the average value which can be calculated by dividing the sum of observations by the number of observations

Mean = Sum of observations/the number of observations

WE know that Chocolate chip = $0.73

Double chocolate = $0.82

Oatmeal raisin = $0.70

Sugar = X

Butter pecan = $0.86

We need to find the  cost per cookie, in dollars, for a sugar cookie.

So, Mean = $0.73

Mean = 0.73 + 0.82 + 0.70+ X + 0.86 / 5

0.73 (5) =0.73 + 0.82 + 0.70+ X + 0.86

x = 0.54

Therefore, The cost per cookie, in dollars, for a sugar cookie is A; $0.54.
