Angela and neil are going to the movies. they each bought a medium popcor, and neil got a small soft drink. angela had a $15 gift certificate to put towards the cost, and neil paid the rest, which came to $23.50. a movie ticket costs $13, and a medium popcorn costs 4,50. what was the cost for a soft drink? asap

The cost for a soft drink was $3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Angela has a $15 gift certificate.

Total cost for the popcorn and drink and movie tickets = $15 + $23.50 = $38.50

The cost of 2 movie tickets = $13 x 2 = $26

The cost of 2 popcorn = $4.50 x 2 = $9.00

Now we have to find the cost for a soft drink.

Let "x" be the cost for a soft drink.

Total cost = x + The cost of 2 popcorn + The cost of 2 tickets

$38.50 = x + $9 + $26

$38.50 = x + $35

x = $38.50 - $35

x = $3.50

So the cost for a soft drink was $3.50

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.
