. In a sample of n = 6, five individuals all have scores of X = 10 and the sixth person has a score of X = 16. What is the mean for this sample?
Mean = sum of scores divided by number of scores.
(5*10 + 16)/6 = ?
To find the mean for this sample, you need to add up all the scores and divide by the total number of individuals.
1. Add up all the scores:
10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 16 = 66
2. Divide the sum by the total number of individuals:
66 / 6 = 11
Therefore, the mean for this sample is 11.
To find the mean for this sample, you need to calculate the average of all the scores.
To get the mean, you sum up all the scores and divide it by the number of scores. In this case, you have 5 individuals with a score of 10 and 1 individual with a score of 16.
So, the calculation would be:
Mean = (5 * 10 + 16) / 6
= (50 + 16) / 6
= 66 / 6
= 11
Therefore, the mean for this sample is 11.
