1 answer

To calculate the sample mean age of the 10 passengers, you can follow these steps:

  1. Sum the ages: \[ 23 + 48 + 52 + 34 + 22 + 53 + 19 + 23 + 32 + 27 = 362 \]

  2. Count the number of passengers: There are 10 passengers.

  3. Calculate the mean: \[ \text{Mean} = \frac{\text{Sum of ages}}{\text{Number of passengers}} = \frac{362}{10} = 36.2 \]

  4. Round to the nearest integer: The mean age rounded to the nearest integer is 36 years.

None of the provided options match this result. If you find that the question has other stipulations or if a mistake in the data occurred, please check the values again. However, based on the numbers given, the mean age is 36 years.
