3. During last season, Fairfield Farms sold strawberries as follows: 800 boxes at $1.25/box in the early part of the season; 1600 boxes at $0.90/box and 2000 boxes at $0.75/box at the height of the season, and 600 boxes at $1.10/box during the late season. a) What was the average price charged? (b) What was the average price per box?

Respuesta :

a)

Average price charged :

[tex]P=\dfrac{1.25+0.90+0.75+1.10}{4}\\\\P=\$1[/tex]

b)

Total income, T =$ 800×1.25 + 1600×0.90 + 2000×0.75 + 600×1.10

T = $4600 .

Total number of box, n = 800 + 1600 + 2000 + 600 = 5000.

Average price per box, [tex]A=\dfrac{4600}{5000}=\$0.92/box[/tex] .

Hence, this is the required solution.
