Answer 1

Given:

The set of data is given as

`32,23,34,29,15,17,23`

Required:

To find the mean.

Formula:

`\text{Mean(}\bar{\text{X}})=(\Sigma x)/(n)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the ratio of the sum of the values and the number of values.

No of values in the given data is 7.

`n=7`
`\begin{gathered} \text{Mean}=(32+23+34+29+15+17+23)/(7) \\ =(173)/(7) \\ =24.7 \end{gathered}`

Final Answer:

`\text{Mean}=24.7`
