Mean of a data = Sum of all observations ÷ Total number of observations
Mean of this data will be :
Sum of all observarions = 17 + 13 + 18 + 20 + 17 + 15 + 12 = 112
Total number of observations = 7
Mean = 112 ÷ 7
Mean = 16
Therefore the mean of this data set <em>=</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>6</em><em> </em>
Answer: a. It is commonly referred to as the arithmetic average.
b. It is algebraically defined (that is, there is an equation you can use to calculate its value).
c. It is easily influenced by extreme scores.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is also referred to as the "average" and it is gotten by adding every number and the dividing the value gotten by the number of the numbers used for the calculation.
It should be noted that the mean is algebraically defined and can be easily influenced by extreme scores.
Answer:
x = ±6
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2/4=9
Multiply by 4 on each side
x^2/4 *4=9*4
x^2 = 36
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(36)
x = ±6
We know that Bob and Caitlyn are playing a trading-card game. Between them, they have 81 cards. <span>Bob has 7 fewer cards than Caitlyn. Since Bob has 7 cards fewer them Caitlyn we have to divide by 2 and subtract 7.
81 / 2 = 40 [rounded]
40 - 7 = cards Bob has
= 33 cards bob has
</span>
Keep the denominators the same and subtract the numerators. So for example in your example:
7/8 - 3/8
Leave the 8 alone. Subtract 3 from 7.
7 - 3 = 4
So answer is:
4/8
Sometimes they may have to simplify the answer, and in this case, 4/8 could be simplified to 1/2
