Option 2: The mean price is much greater than the median price

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we need to do is find the mean and median.

TO FIND THE MEAN:

The mean (average) is found by adding all of the numbers together and dividing by the number of items in the set.

TO FIND THE MEDIAN:

The median is found by ordering the set from lowest to highest and finding the exact middle.

Mean:

1 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 7 + 8 =

83/8 =

10.4

Median:

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8

                  ^

4.5

As you can see, the first and third options don't make sense, and the second one does, simply!

Hope that helps!

let's add {f(x)=x+1}f(x)=x+1 and {g(x)=2x}g(x)=2x together to make a new function.

f(x)+g(x) =(x+1)+(2x)=x+1+2x=3x+1

let's call this new function hh. so we have:

{h(x)}={f(x)}+{g(x)}{=3x+1}h(x)=f(x)+g(x)=3x+1

we can also evaluate combined functions for particular inputs. let's evaluate function hh above for x=2x=2. below are two ways of doing this.

method 1: substitute x=2x=2 into the combined function hh.

h(x)

h(2)

​    

=3x+1

=3(2)+1

=7

​ since h(x)=f(x)+g(x)h(x)=f(x)+g(x), we can also find h(2)h(2) by finding f(2) +g(2)f(2)+g(2).

first, let's find f(2)f(2):

f(x)

f(2)

​    

=x+1

=2+1

=3

​  

now, let's find g(2)g(2):

g(x)

g(2)

​    

=2x

=2⋅2

=4

​  

so f(2)+g(2)=3+4=\greend7f(2)+g(2)=3+4=7.

notice that substituting x =2x=2 directly into function hh and finding f(2) + g(2)f(2)+g(2) gave us the same answer!
