Answer:he age of the person who entered the room = 27 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Mean  Age  = total of the ages of observation / numbers of people with the ages

Step 2

Let the sixth person's age be represented as x

such that the mean ages of the 6 people inside the room be given as

Mean =Total ages  of 6 people / 6  

20 = Total ages  of 6 people / 6  

(16+25+23+12+17+ x) / 6 = 20

93+ x / 6 = 20

93+ x= 6 x 20

93+ x= 120

x= 120 - 93

x=27

the age of the person who entered the room = 27 years

The mean value of 8 numbers is 17. Three of these numbers (9, 11, and 20) are discarded.
Viktor [21]

Answer:

19.2

Step-by-step explanation:

You get the mean of a set of numbers by adding them and dividing the sum by how many numbers there are.  In this case, you don't know what the individual 8 numbers are, but you can find out what they add up to.

Mean = (sum) / 8

17 = (sum) / 8

17 x 8 = sum

136 = sum

Now take out the numbers 9, 11, 20, which reduces the sum by 40.  There are 5 numbers left and they add up to 136 - 40 = 96.

The new mean is 96 / 5 = 19.2
