The mean is the average of the numbers.

It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are


\bar{x=\frac{\sum ^(\square)_{\text{ of numbers}}}{Number\text{ of items}}\text{ }}

the numbers given in the question are


2,11,5,6,13,4,9

there are 7 numbers in total.

Therefore, the mean will be


\begin{gathered} \operatorname{mean}=(2+11+5+6+13+4+9)/(7) \\ \operatorname{mean}=(50)/(7) \\ \operatorname{mean}=7.143 \\ to\text{ the nearest tenths, the mean is} \\ \operatorname{mean}=7.1 \end{gathered}

Hence,

the mean of the above set of values to the nearest tenth is = 7.1
