Answer 1

33.2

Explanation:

Given that Coach King is holding a free-throw shooting contest for some students in his PE class. The students participating in the contest shoot 10 free throws each.

For finding mean we sum up all the entries and divide by total number here 10

Total

=
`26+34+42+40+38+35+20+34+45+18\\=332`

Mean =
`(332)/(10) \\=33.2`

Out of the four options given, we find that Option C is right

Answer 2

C.) 33.2
to find the mean you add up all the numbers and divide by how many numbers there are.
