Answer:
Colin's mean score = 17.10
The new mean is 18.00
Explanation:
Given scores: 31, 10, 26, 16, 28, 31, 9, 11, 8, 1
number of terms: 10
mean is calculated by given formula = sum of all the data set/ number of terms in the data set.
mean for the 10 scores = (31+ 10+ 26+ 16+ 28+ 31+ 9+ 11+ 8+ 1 )/10
= 171/10 = 17.1
Colin's mean score = 17.10
____________________________________________
runs scored by Colin in 11th match = 27
number of terms: 11
new mean = new sum /number of terms
new mean = (old sum score + 27)/11 = (171+27)/11
new mean = 198/11 = 18
The new mean is 18.00
