Respuesta :

Given:

The following data set represents the scores (out of 100 points).

94 78 79 97 95 84 80

82 94 92 88 88 99 72

We will find the mean of the data as follows:

[tex]mean=\frac{sum\text{ }of\text{ }the\text{ }dat\text{ }set}{numer\text{ }of\text{ }the\text{ }data\text{ }set}[/tex]

We will find the sum of the scores:

[tex]sum=94+78+79+97+95+84+80+82+94+92+88+88+99+72=1222[/tex]

And the number of the dataset = 14

So, the mean will be as follows:

[tex]mean=\frac{1222}{14}=87.2857[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest tenth

So, the answer will be: The mean = 87.3
