Answer 1

PLato answr is 2

Explanation:

Answer 2

The mean for Nancy is 2 tablespoon

Explanation:

Average tablespoon to be added to 2 litres of water= 2 tablespoon

ceiling value (bigger of the two values)= one more than average tablespoon= (2+1) 3 tablespoon

Floor value (smaller of the two values)= one less than average tablespoon= (2-1) 1 tablespoon

Mean value of the tablespoon= (floor value+ceiling value)/2

Substituting the values of floor value and ceiling value

Thus the value is 2 tablespoon

Mean tablespoon allowed by Nancy in the two litres of seltzer water is 2 tablespoon.
