There are infinite solutions, but if it was asking for a probability, you might want to use geometric probability.
I would love to help, but I don't think you wrote the whole question
Answer: $56,000
Solution:
Let the mean be x. x ÷ 7 = 8,000, so x = 8,000 • 7 = 56,000. Also, the mean is the sum divided by tht total objects, so to find the total of the objects, multiply the mean by the number of objects. Hope this makes sense!
