HELP PLZ

The kingdom of Arendelle is trying to decide who to send to the regional track meet. Anna, Elsa, and Olaf competed in the long jump and their 6 jumps are shown below (in meters). Kristoff says that Olaf has the longest average, so he should be sent to the track meet. Do you agree or disagree? Why?

Answer 1

Please find table attached

Answer:

Agree: Olaf should be sent to the track meet because he has the longest average

Explanation:

To ascertain if this is true, we must calculate the average for each athlete

Mean or average of athlete= total score of jumps/ number of jumps

Average for Anna= 3.25+3.95+4.28+2.95+3.66+3.81/6 = 3.65

Average for Elsa=3.55+3.88+3.61+3.97+3.75+3.59/6

=3.725

Average for Olaf=3.67+3.78+3.92+3.62+3.85+3.73/6

= 3.76

Therefore Olaf has the longest average =3.76
