Find the mean, median, and mode of the data set: 45, 52, 17, 63, 57, 42, 54, 58.(1 point)Find the mean, median, and mode of the data set: 45, 52, 17, 63, 57, 42, 54, 58.(1 point)

Answer 1

Mean:
To find the mean, we add up all the numbers in the data set and then divide by the total number of values.
Mean = (45 + 52 + 17 + 63 + 57 + 42 + 54 + 58) / 8 = 388 / 8 = 48.5

Median:
To find the median, we first need to arrange the numbers in ascending order: 17, 42, 45, 52, 54, 57, 58, 63
Since there are 8 numbers in the data set, the median is the average of the two middle numbers.
Median = (52 + 54) / 2 = 53

Mode:
The mode is the number that appears most frequently in the data set.
In this case, there is no number that appears more than once, so there is no mode.
