Question

The top 16 winning scores for NFL games are listed below. Find the mean score.72585452525154637051514856525861

Answer 1

We have to calculate the mean of this sample.

We can do this with the formula:

`M_{}=(1)/(n)\sum ^n_(i=1)\, x_i`

If we apply this to this sample we get:

`\begin{gathered} M_{}=(1)/(16)(72+58+54+52+52+51+54+63+70+51+51+48+56+52+58+61) \\ M_{}=(903)/(16) \\ M=56.4375 \end{gathered}`

Answer: the mean score is 56.4375.
