Question

These numbers tell how many books five different students read in the past six months. 8, 11, 15, 22, and 6 a) Create a different set of five pieces of data with a greater mean, but with at least two values less than the values in the set of data above. b) Create a different set of five pieces of data with a lower mean, but with at least two values greater than the values in the set of data above. How did you make it work? c) Create a different set of five pieces of data with a lower mean, but with a higher median than the original set.

Answer 1

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Origibal data set

8, 11, 15, 22, 6

Rearranging The value :

x : 6, 8, 11, 15,22

Mean = Σx / n

n = sample size =5

Mean = (6+8+11+15+22) = 62

Mean = 62 / 5 = 12.4

Median = 1/2(n+1)th term

Median = 1/2(6)th term = 6/2 = 3rd term = 11

A.)

X = 4, 5, 15, 23, 19

MEAN = (4 +5 + 15 + 23 + 19) / 5 = 13.2

B.)

X = 2, 6, 5, 23, 34

Mean = (2+6+5+23+24) / 5

Mean = 60 / 2 = 12

C.)

X = 3, 7, 12, 21, 13

X = 3, 7, 12, 13, 21

Mean = (3+7+12+13+21) /5 = 11.2

Median = 1/2(6)th term = 6/2 = 3rd term = 12
