The mean score on a set of 17 tests is 70. Suppose two more students take the test and score 68 and 61. What is the new​ mean?

Respuesta :

the mean is basically the average of the numbers

we can calculate that by using this formula

[tex]m = \frac{sum \: of \: terms}{number \: of \: terms} [/tex]

first add both terms

[tex]61 + 68 = 129[/tex]

then divide the value 129 by number of terms

we know that the number of terms is two so

[tex] \frac{129}{2} [/tex]

so when we divide the answer is equal to

[tex]64.5[/tex]

hope that helps !

64.5
