To find the mean years of teaching for high school teachers, we add up the years of teaching and divide by the total number of high school teachers surveyed (10):
Mean years of teaching for high school teachers = (10 + 8 + 11 + 15 + 4 + 6 + 11 + 18 + 12 + 13) / 10 = 108 / 10 = 10.8
Similarly, to find the mean years of teaching for middle school teachers, we add up the years of teaching and divide by the total number of middle school teachers surveyed (10):
Mean years of teaching for middle school teachers = (5 + 7 + 10 + 15 + 12 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 15 + 12) / 10 = 103 / 10 = 10.3
To find the difference between the mean years of teaching for high school teachers and middle school teachers, we subtract the mean years of teaching for middle school teachers from the mean years of teaching for high school teachers:
Difference = 10.8 - 10.3 = 0.5
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the difference is 0.5.
Mean years of teaching for high school teachers = (10 + 8 + 11 + 15 + 4 + 6 + 11 + 18 + 12 + 13) / 10 = 108 / 10 = 10.8
Similarly, to find the mean years of teaching for middle school teachers, we add up the years of teaching and divide by the total number of middle school teachers surveyed (10):
Mean years of teaching for middle school teachers = (5 + 7 + 10 + 15 + 12 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 15 + 12) / 10 = 103 / 10 = 10.3
To find the difference between the mean years of teaching for high school teachers and middle school teachers, we subtract the mean years of teaching for middle school teachers from the mean years of teaching for high school teachers:
Difference = 10.8 - 10.3 = 0.5
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the difference is 0.5.
