MHB Buy 7 Pencils & Notebooks with \$15 - Solve Inequalities
I have \$15 to buy pencils and notebooks from a bookstore. If pencils are \$0.50 each and a notebook costs \$1.50, then how many pencils and notebooks can I buy if I spent all of the money? I reasoned: .5x+1.5x=15 x= 7.5 So 7 notebooks and 7 pencils. Is this correct?Thanks- rebo1984

MHB Which measure of center is most accurate for the batting averages of a team?
The guidelines state that the mean should be used if the values are similar, and that the median should be used if there are outliers, yet the answers are reversed.So I'm confused.- rebo1984
