You should be able to use an AVERAGEIFS formula, using the day of the week code in the first column as your criteria.

Thank you! I guess where i am having confusion with this now, is how I would go about plotting it?

I really don't do much with plotting or charts, so I probably don't have much to offer on that part of the problem.
