In order to get the mean score, there are only two steps.

1. Add all the scores in the list.


3+17+10+6+25+17+34=112
30+13+27+3+0+21+17=111
13+20+15+20+29+27=124
112+111+124=347

The sum of all the scores is 347.

2. Divide the sum by the total number of scores. There are 20 scores in total.


347/20=17.35

Answer:

The mean score of the Atlanta Falcons in the year 2021 is 17.35.

On the other hand, the mode is the score that repeats most of the time. In the set of scores, the score 17 has repeated thrice. Hence, the mode of the problem is 17.

Now, in order to get the median, we have to arrange the scores from lowest to highest or vice versa. The median will be the middlemost data.


0,3,3,6,10,13,13,15,17,17,17,20,20,21,25,27,27,29,30,34

The middlemost data would be the average of the 10th and 11th data.

In the arrangement, the 10th data is 17. The 11th data is 17. The middle of these two is also 17. Hence, the median of this set of scores is 17.
