Question

Find x, y, z, so that 41, 46, x, y, z has a mean of 50 and a mode of 45

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

as mode is 45 ,two of three is 45

i assume x =y=45

now (41+46+45+45+z)/5=50

177+z=50×5=250

z=250-177=73

so x=45

y=45

z=73

Answer 2

Answer: x = 45, y = 45 and z = 73

Step-by-step explanation:

If mode = 45, it means 45 has appeared in the data set more than once

Data set is therefore written as 41, 46, 45, 45 and z; where x = 45 and y = 45

Now that we know x and y, find z.

To find z, if mean of the data set is 50, then it can be written as:

50 = 41 +46 +45 +45 + z/5

Cross multiply to get

50×5 = 177 +z

250 = 177 + z

z = 250 - 177

z= 73
