Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that mean = 21 and total number of hours = 8

Let the number of prescriptions filled during hour two be x

[tex]Mean = \frac{Sum\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}all\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}number\hspace{3}of \hspace{3}prescriptions}{Total\hspace{3}number\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}hours}[/tex]

[tex]21 = \frac{18+x+22+25+16+24+22+28}{8}[/tex]

[tex]21 = \frac{155+x}{8}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 8

[tex]21 * 8= \frac{155+x}{8}*8[/tex]

Cancel out the 8's on the top and bottom of the right side

[tex]168= 155+x[/tex]

Subtract 155 from both side

168-155=155+x-155

Cancel out +155 and -155 from the right side

13 = x

Flip the sides

x = 13

So, the number of prescriptions filled during hour two = 13
