Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate the mean (average) weekly earnings of workers in the occupations listed for 2010, we need to add up the earnings for each occupation and divide by the total number of occupations.

Forestry, logging and support: $971

Manufacturing: $977

Transportation and warehousing: $900

Construction: $1071

Retail trade: $501

Total earnings: $4,420

Total number of occupations: 5

Mean weekly earnings: $4,420 ÷ 5 = $884

Therefore, the mean (average) weekly earnings of workers in the occupations listed for 2010 is $884.
