First week, Devon's spent $12.99, $10.50, $9.89, $6.90 and $7.58
Mean = (12.99 + 10.50 + 9.89 + 6.90 + 7.58)/5
Mean = 47.86/5
Mean = 9.572

Second week Devon spent $2 more for the total five lunches
so, Mean = (47.86 + 2)/5
Mean = 9.972

The increase in the mean for the second week compared to the first week is
9.972 - 9.572
