QUESTION 2 If you only purchased 1 pair of shoes at Best Buy Shoes instead of the four described in problem 20, how much would you have paid, based on the average price?

Respuesta :

1) the average price would be 17 dollars
2) you would have paid 17.31 dollars
Sorry if it didn't help.

Answer: a) $17.31, b) $17.31.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total bill for four pairs of shoes = $69.24

Number of pairs of shoes = 4

We need to find the average price for each pair of shoes .

So, Average price would be

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Total amount}}{\text{Number of pairs of shoes}}\\\\=\dfrac{69.24}{4}\\\\=\$17.31[/tex]

If he purchased only 1 pair of shoes, the amount he has to pay based on average price would be $17.31.

Hence, a) $17.31, b) $17.31.
