The first 100 cost $10 each and the next 200 cost $5 each. How much should Roger pay for the next 100 if the overall average price is to be $10.
\n" ); document.write( "The answer is supposed to be $20
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Average value Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "(100*10 + 200*5 + 100*x)/400 = 10
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "(2000 + 100x) = 4000
\n" ); document.write( "100x = 2000
\n" ); document.write( "x = $20
