If the arithmetic mean of p and q is 10 and the arithmetic mean of q and r is 26, what is the value of r-p? Select:	A) 20	B) 10	C) 32	D) 40	E) 5
Arithmetic mean expression for p and q:   (p+q)/2=10 ; p+q=20 ----eq1   Arithmetic mean expression for q and r:   (q+r)/2=20 ; q+r=52 ----eq2   Subtracting eq1 from eq2 we get: r-p=32   Hence, the correct answer is 32
