You and your friend are having a friendly competition about the scores on your math quizzes. Both of your scores for the first five quizzes are given below:
Your quiz scores: 18, 16, 19, 15, 17
Friend’s quiz scores: 20, 20, 13, 12, 17
a. Find the mean, median, and mode of both sets of data.
b. Which person – you or your friend – has the higher mean?

World Populations:
The populations (in millions) in 2000 on each of the six inhabited continents were:
803, 487, 348, 368, 730, and 31
a. What is the range of the populations?
b. Find the mean, median, and mode(s) of the populations.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

quiz scores:

a. arrange them all from least to greatest to figure out the median first

your quiz: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19     middle # = 17        median = 17

friend's quiz: 12, 13, 17, 20, 20     middle # = 17       median = 17

now for mean add all of your quiz scores up and divide by how many #s

15 + 16 + 17 + 18 + 19 = 85 / 5 = 17          mean = 17

now your friend's:

12 + 13 + 17 + 20 + 20 = 82 / 5 = 16.4       mean = 16.4

mode is which number is used the most

your mode = you don't have a mode       your friend's mode = 20

b. you have a higher mean than your friend

world populations:

a. range is to subtract the smallest number from the largest

803 - 31 = 772

b. mean is adding it all up and dividing by how many numbers there are:

803 + 487 + 348 + 368 + 730 + 31 = 2767 / 6 = 461.17

median is arranging them in order and finding the middle #

31, 348, 368, 487, 730, 803

368 + 487 = 855 / 2 = 427.5

mean = 461.17

median = 427.5

mode = no mode

tomato plants:

a. range is subtracting the smallest from the largest

52 - 36 = 16

b. mean is adding all the #s and dividing by how many #s there are:

36 + 45 + 52 + 40 + 38 +41 + 50 + 48 = 350 / 8 = 43.75

median is the middle from least to greatest

36, 38, 40, 41, 45, 48, 50, 52

41 + 45 = 86 / 2 = 43

mean = 43.75

median = 43

mode = no mode

hope this helps! :)
