Answer:


\text{ \$25.26}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the mean utilit bill over the period

Mathematically, that means we have to find the average of his utility bills in that period

To get this,we have to divide the sum of all these values by the count of these values (5)

Mathematically, we have this as:


\frac{23.84\text{ + 23.87 +20.48 + 29.75 + 28.34}}{5}=\text{ }(126.28)/(5)\text{ = \$25.26}
