Question

The line plot below shows the area, in square feet, of each studio in an art center. what is the mean area of the studios in the art center?

A. 700 square feet

B. 1000 square feet

C. 1050 square feet

D. 1080 square feet

Answer 1

`Mean = 1080` . Correct answer , D. 1080 square feet

Explanation:

Here we have , the line plot which shows the area in given image , in square feet, of each studio in an art center. We need to find what is the mean area of the studios in the art center . Let's find out:

We know that

`Mean = (x_1+x_2+.....+x_n)/(n)`

According to question , we need to find mean of this data plot :

⇒
`Mean = (x_1+x_2+.....+x_n)/(n)`

⇒
`Mean = (800(2)+1000(3)+1100(2)+1200(1)+1300(1)+1500(1))/(10)`

⇒
`Mean = (10800)/(10)`

⇒
`Mean = 1080`

Therefore ,
`Mean = 1080` . Correct answer , D. 1080 square feet
