To find the mean (average), u add up all ur numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are.
mean = (5 + 12 + 1 + 5 + 7) / 5 = 30/5 = 6
To find the mode (and there does not have to be one)...u find the number that is used the most. That number would be 5...because it is used twice, whereas, the other numbers are just used once.
Let's let the weight of a large box be L, and the weight of a small box be S.
We know that 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes is 120kg, so:
5L + 3S = 120
We also know that 7 large boxes and 9 small boxes is 234kg, so:
7L + 9S = 234
You can multiply the first equation by 3 to get:
15L + 9S = 360
See how now both equations have 9S? We can now subtract one from the other:
(15L+9S) - (7L+9S) = 360-234
8L = 126
L = 15.75
Now sub this value back into an equation:
(5x15.75) + 3S = 120
3S = 41.25
S = 13.75
Double check these values
(7x15.75) + (9x13.75)
= 110.25 + 123.75
=234, which is consistent with above.
So a large box is 15.75kg, and a small box is 13.75kg.

Answer:
the first option
Step-by-step explanation:
really, just look at the table.
is the mean value (10.4) larger than the median (13.4) ?
I hope you can see right away that it is not.
and you can see they are not the same either.
so, all the answer options mentioning mean larger than median or equal to median can be ruled out right away.
so, it is between the first two options.
now think ! how do we draw number lines ? a coordinate axis ?
the smaller numbers left, the larger numbers right. the numbers grow from left to right.
the mean value is simply the sum of all measurements divided by the number of measurements (how many median were done). if that is smaller that the median (so, the Mean is left of the Median), it means that the majority of measurements had a result smaller (to the left) than the Median. so, it is skewed-left.
