Answer:

Unit price = $8.50 per disc.

Explanations:

According to the information given, we have that 3 compact discs cost $25.50. The unit price is equal to the cost of 1 disc. The unit price is expressed as:


\text{Unit price=}\frac{Cost\text{ of the 3 discs}}{total\text{ discs}}

Given the following parameters

• Cost of 3 compact discs = $25.50

,

• Total discs = 3 discs

Substitute the given parameters into the formula:


\begin{gathered} \text{Unit price=}(25.50)/(3) \\ \text{Unit price=}\$8.5\text{/compact disc} \end{gathered}

Hence the unit price of the compact disc is $8.50 per disc.
