6 0

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean refers to the average value of the set of data.

It is the central value of the set of data.

Another word for Mean is average.

Given scores:7, 9, 6, 3, 7, 8, 4, 10, 7, 9

Solution:

Sum of observations = 7+ 9+ 6+ 3+ 7+ 8+ 4+ 10+ 7+ 9=70

Number of observations = 10

Mean = Sum of observations/Number of observations = \frac{70}{10}=7

If observation 3 is removed:

Sum of observations = 7+ 9+ 6+  7+ 8+ 4+ 10+ 7+ 9=67

Number of observations = 9

Mean =  Sum of observations/Number of observations = \frac{67}{9}=7.44

If observation 4 is removed:

Sum of observations = 7+ 9+ 6+ 3+ 7+ 8+ 10+ 7+ 9=66

Number of observations = 9

Mean = \frac{66}{9}=7.3

If observation 6 is removed:

Sum of observations = 7+ 9+ 3+ 7+ 8+ 4+ 10+ 7+ 9=64

Number of observations = 9

Mean = \frac{64}{9}=7.1

If observation 7 is removed:

Sum of observations = 9+ 6+ 3+  8+ 4+ 10+  9=49

Number of observations = 7

Mean = \frac{49}{7}=7

If observation 8 is removed:

Sum of observations = 7+ 9+ 6+ 3+ 7+  4+ 10+ 7+ 9=62

Number of observations = 9

Mean = \frac{62}{9}=6.9

If observation 9 is removed:

Sum of observations = 7+ 6+ 3+ 7+ 8+ 4+ 10+ 7=52

Number of observations = 8

Mean = \frac{52}{8}=6.5

If observation 10 is removed:

Sum of observations = 7+ 9+ 6+ 3+ 7+ 8+ 4+ 7+ 9=60

Number of observations = 9

Mean = \frac{60}{9}=6.7

Therefore, mean of this distribution of scores would be changed the most if a score 3 was removed from the data set.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

The opportunity cost is $28.600

Step-by-step explanation:

The opportunity cost is the value of the best alternative that is rejected. If Susan goes to college loses what he would win from her salary minus any potential gains from investment in education in college. It can be found as this:

Expenses: 8000 + 900 + 2500 = 11.400

So OCost is: 40.000 - 11.400 = 28600

She would lose 28.600 of income per year because of going to college.
