Answer:
:)
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>quiz scores:</u></em>
a. arrange them all from least to greatest to figure out the median first
your quiz: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 middle # = 17 median = 17
friend's quiz: 12, 13, 17, 20, 20 middle # = 17 median = 17
now for mean add all of your quiz scores up and divide by how many #s
15 + 16 + 17 + 18 + 19 = 85 / 5 = 17 mean = 17
now your friend's:
12 + 13 + 17 + 20 + 20 = 82 / 5 = 16.4 mean = 16.4
mode is which number is used the most
your mode = you don't have a mode your friend's mode = 20
b. you have a higher mean than your friend
<em><u>world populations:</u></em>
a. range is to subtract the smallest number from the largest
803 - 31 = 772
b. mean is adding it all up and dividing by how many numbers there are:
803 + 487 + 348 + 368 + 730 + 31 = 2767 / 6 = 461.17
median is arranging them in order and finding the middle #
31, 348, 368, 487, 730, 803
368 + 487 = 855 / 2 = 427.5
mean = 461.17
median = 427.5
mode = no mode
<em><u>tomato plants:</u></em>
a. range is subtracting the smallest from the largest
52 - 36 = 16
b. mean is adding all the #s and dividing by how many #s there are:
36 + 45 + 52 + 40 + 38 +41 + 50 + 48 = 350 / 8 = 43.75
median is the middle from least to greatest
36, 38, 40, 41, 45, 48, 50, 52
41 + 45 = 86 / 2 = 43
mean = 43.75
median = 43
mode = no mode
hope this helps! :)
