Answer 1

Answer:

The mean value = $80.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of her last six spendings are $109, $72, $99, $15, $99, and $89.

For the mean.

Mean = Total spendings/number

Mean =483/6

Mean = $80.5

For the median.

Lets arrange it in ascending order

$15 ,$72, $89, $99, $99, $109

The middle values are two.

Median = (89+99)/2

Median = 188/2

Median = $94

For the mode

$15 ,$72, $89, $99, $99, $109

Highest occuring is $99 with two frequencies.

To convince her parents that she needs an increase in allowance she would show them the bigger spendings .

So the least value on the list it's mean value which is $80.5.
