Solving for the Mean, Median and Mode of a Data Set
Answer:
Mean: [tex]8[/tex]
Median: [tex]7[/tex]
Mode: [tex]5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If we increase each element in the data set by [tex]4[/tex], our new data set will be...
[tex]\{ 7, 9, 5, 9, 5, 5, 6, 7, 19 \}[/tex]
The mean of a data set is the sum of all of its elements divided by the number of elements.
Solving for the mean:
[tex]\frac{7 +9 +5 +9 +5 +5 +6 +7 +19}{9} \\ \frac{72}{9} \\ 8[/tex]
The median of a data set is just the middle number if and only if the elements of the data set is arranged according to how less to how great each element is.
If we arrange our data set it will be...
[tex]\{ 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 7, 9, 9, 19 \}[/tex]
We can do see that our middle number is [tex]7[/tex] so this our median.
The mode of a data set is the number that repeated the most. We can see in our data set that the number [tex]5[/tex] repeated [tex]3[/tex] times. [tex]6[/tex] and [tex]19[/tex] is [tex]1[/tex]. [tex]7[/tex] and [tex]9[/tex] is [tex]2[/tex]. Since [tex]5[/tex] is the number that repeated the most, this is our median.
Hey there!
Mean is your average.
• You find it by
ADDING all of
your numbers
and DIVIDING
it by the total
number in
your data
plot
Median is the number
in the MIDDLE
• You find it by putting
your numbers from
least to greatest
Mode is the number
that you see MORE
THAN ONCE
• you find it by
putting your numbers
from smallest to biggest
Answering your question….
YOUR ORIGINAL SET:
3, 5, 1, 5, 1, 1, 2, 3, 15
FINDING the [MEAN]
3 + [4] = 7
5 + [4] = 9
1 + [4] = 5
5 + [4] = 9
1 + [4] = 5
1 + [4] = 5
2 + [4] = 6
3 + [4] = 7
15 + [4] = 19
Total numbers in your data plot: 9
Equation:
7 + 9 + 5 + 9 + 5 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 19 / 9
= 16 + 5 + 9 + 5 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 19 / 9
= 21 + 9 + 5 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 19 / 9
= 30 + 5 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 19 / 9
= 35 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 19 / 9
= 40 + 6 + 7 + 19 / 9
= 46 + 7 + 19 / 9
= 53 + 19 / 9
= 72 / 9
= 8
Therefore, your MEAN is: 8
FINDING the [MEDIAN]
ORIGINAL SET;
3, 5, 1, 5, 1, 1, 2, 3, 15
YOUR EQUATION:
1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 5, 5, 15
Therefore, your MEDIAN is: 3
FINDING the MODE
1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 5, 5 15
1 is shown THREE TIMES
2 is shown ONE TIME
3 is shown TWO TIMES
5 is shown TWO TIMES
15 is shown ONE TIME
Therefore, your mode is: 1
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
