D. ​$3867.52

Answer 1

B. ​$ 3094.01

Explanation:

Given observations are,

$2894.21, ​ $1777.15, ​ $2144.77, ​ $4096.37, ​ $4046.29, ​$1786.37, ​ $3296.69, ​ $4086.27, ​ $2784.22

Number of observations = 10,

Sum of the observations = 2894.21​+1777.15​+2144.77​+4096.37​+4046.29​+1786.37​+3296.69​+4086.27​+2784.22​+4027.79 = 30940.13,

Hence,

`Mean = \frac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{Number of observation}}`

`=(30940.13)/(10)`

`=3094.013`

`\approx 3094.01`

Option 'B' is correct.
