Question

Answer 1

Given:

You scored 12, 8, 15, and 21 points during your first four basketball games.

To find"

The mean score per game.

Solution:

We have,

Observations =12, 8, 15, and 21 points

Number of observations = 4

We know that,

`\text{Mean}=\frac{\text{Sum of the observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}`

The mean score per game is

`\text{Mean}=(12+8+15+21)/(4)`

`\text{Mean}=(56)/(4)`

`\text{Mean}=14`

Therefore, the mean score per game is 14 points.
