The mean of a dataset is the sum of all data elements divided by the count of the elements.

The location of the 6th score relative to the mean is 5 points below the mean

Let:

\bar x \to<em> Mean</em>

a \to<em> 5 scores</em>

b \to<em> 6th scores</em>

Given that:

n = 6

The 5 scores that are 1 above the mean implies that:

a = \bar x + 1

The mean of a dataset is calculated using:

\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}

So, we have:

\bar x =\frac{5a + b}{6}

\bar x =\frac{5(\bar x + 1) + b}{6}

Open brackets

\bar x =\frac{5\bar x + 5 + b}{6}

Multiply both sides by 6

6\bar x =5\bar x + 5 + b

Make b the subject

b = 6\bar x -5\bar x - 5

b = \bar x - 5

This means that the 6th score is 5 points below the mean

A sample is BEST defined as _________.
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

(B) A selected group of participants that is representative of a larger population

Step-by-step explanation:

A sample statistic is a piece of information that you get from a fraction of the population. This information is representative of a larger population.

For example, someone wants to conduct a survey about the most popular NFL team in Syracuse, NY, if it is the Buffalo Bills or the New York Giants. This person is not going to ask each person for whom they cheer. They are going to collect data from a fraction of the population and this data will be expanded to include the entire population.

So, the correct answer is:

(B) A selected group of participants that is representative of a larger population
