Question

The owner of a busy coffee shop wanted to see if it was worth keeping tea on the menu. She logged the number of cups of tea she sold each day for seven days.
6 12 5 7 7 3 9
Calculate the mean, median, range, and midrange of the number of cups of tea sold for the week.

Answer 1

Answer:

mean = 7

median = 7

range = 9

mid range = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

3, 5, 6, 7, 7, 9, 12

Range is the difference between the highest and lowest values of a set of observations

Range = highest value - lowest value

12 - 3 = 9  

Median can be described as the number that occurs in the middle of a set of numbers that are arranged either in ascending or descending order

3, 5, 6, 7, 7, 9, 12

median = 7

Mean is the average of a set of numbers. It is determined by adding the numbers together and dividing it by the total number

Mean = sum of the numbers / total number

(6 + 12 + 5 + 7+  7 + 3 + 9) / 7 = 7

Mid range = (highest value + lowest value) / 2

(12 + 3) / 2 = 7.5
