To see how costly it would be for other people to compete a similar cycling tour, you decide to work out two averages and compare. the average amount spent by members of cycle group a was? person 1 £500 person 2 £600 person 3 £900 person 4 £450 group b person 1 £700 person 2 £500 person 3 £680 person 4 £500 the average amount spent by members of group b was? which group had the lower average spend?

Group A

Money spent by Person 1 = £500

Money spent by Person 2 = £600

Money spent by Person 3 = £900

Money spent by Person 4 = £450

Sum of money spent by group A = £2,450

Average money spent by group A =

⇒ Average money spent by group A = £612.5

Group B

Money spent by Person 1 = £700

Money spent by Person 2 = £500

Money spent by Person 3 = £680

Money spent by Person 4 = £500

Sum of money spent by group B = £2,380

Average money spent by group B =

⇒ Average money spent by group B = £595

Hence, Group B had lower average spend.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
