Answer ! nancy hears a report that the average price of gasoline is $2.82. she averages the prices of stations near her home. she finds the average price of gas to be $3.03. why are the averages different?

This would be the same as the last question you posted!

The averages are different because gas stations set there own prices and averages are just a median of a grouping of prices and there may have been different grouping of gas stations in the report than there are near her home. Another reason, and a big one, is transportation of the fuel and oil pipeline locations in relevance to refineries being local or distant.

Hmmm i had this before , give me a sec
