Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Proper scientific notation means that there is only 1 number to the left of a decimal and everything else to the right of it. Also, because the number is initially less than 1, the exponent will be a negative one. We have to move the decimal 4 places to the right in order to get the 6 to the left of it, so in correct scientific notation format, we have

$6.363*10^{-4$

Answer:

$\overline{x}=15$

Step-by-step explanation:

the mean is given by:

$\overline{x} = \dfrac{\sum\limits_{i=1}^n x_i}{n} \quad\text{or}\quad \dfrac{\text{sum of all items}}{\text{number of items}}$

In our case this is:

$\overline{x} = \dfrac{19+15+6+11+24}{5} \Rightarrow \dfrac{75}{5}\\\\\overline{x} = 15\\\\$

side note: the main difference between sample mean and population mean is in the 'context'. However, the method to calculate them is the same.

By context I mean: if this the items are taken from some larger category for example: the ages of a few 'students' from a 'class'. Here 'students' are the sample from a larger set that is 'class'. The mean of the 'few students' will be called sample mean. In contrast, if we take the mean of the ages of the whole class then this is called population mean. (population mean == mean of the whole set)

In our case we aren't told exactly where these numbers come from, is this the whole set or a sample from it, the lack of context allows us to assume that the mean can either be population mean or sample mean. So we can safely use any symbol $\mu$ or $\overline{x}$ .
