Acomic-strip writer churns out different numbers of comic strips each day. the writer logged the number of comic strips he wrote each day for 16 days and sorted the data in ascending order to create this data set. {1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 8} if the writer writes for two more days and creates 5 and 7 comic strips, respectively, the difference of the mean and the median for the new data set is?

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
