A certain bakery has 6 employees. It pays annual salaries of $14,000 to each of 2 employees, $16,000 to 1 employee, and $17,000 to each of the remaining 3 employees. The average (arithmetic mean) annual salary of these employees is closest to which of the following

Option C) $15,800 is the answer.

Explanation:

First, it is necessary to remember that there are 6 employees in the bakery.

We have to add all the annual salaries:

14,000*2=28,000

16,000*1=16,000

17,000*3=51,000

28,000+16,000+51,000=95,000.

Finally, we most divide the following:

95,000/6=$15,833.3 and the closest amount to this one is option C, $15,800.

i remember a kid from africa moved to our school and she didn't speak no english. well she did but it was very limited but all the kids including me would ask her question like has she ever hunted a elephant or ever been hunted by a lion. to us she was so interesting even thought she was ordinary but by the fact she was from a different country we thought things were different. (honestly i asked her if she lived in a mud house on the savanna.) do i feel bad about approaching her yeah but do i feel bad about asking her question no because i would have never found out all the cool things about africa that aren't true
