Question

Find the mean for the following group of data items. 4.1, 8.9, 3.2, 1.9, 7.3, 6.3, 6.7, 8.6, 3.2, 2.3, 5.9 (Round to 3 decimal places as needed.) The mean is

Answer 1

Answer:

The mean is 5.309.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given group of data,

4.1, 8.9, 3.2, 1.9, 7.3, 6.3, 6.7, 8.6, 3.2, 2.3, 5.9,

Sum = 4.1+ 8.9 + 3.2 + 1.9 + 7.3 + 6.3 + 6.7 + 8.6 + 3.2 + 2.3 + 5.9 = 58.4,

Also, number of observations in the data = 11,

We know that,

$Mean=\frac{\text{Sum of all observation}}{\text{Total observations}}$

Hence, the mean of given data = $\frac{58.4}{11}=5.30909\approx 5.309$
