Answer:

I think the answer is A, $5.60

Step-by-step explanation:

9.80 x 9= 88.20

88.20 - 37.80 = 50.40

5.60 x 9 = 50.40

The average amount paid for the books is $12.60

Since Xuan sold 9 used books for $9.80 each, the total amount that's paid for the books will be:

= $9.80 × 9

= $88.20

Since she bought 4 new books and had $37.80 left over, the cost of the books will be

= $88.20 - $37.80

= $50.40

Since she bought 4 books, the average amount paid for the books will be:

= $50.40/4

= $12.60

Therefore, the correct option is D
