The correct answer is B. 16.0. To find the mean of a data set, you add up all the values and then divide by the number of values. In this case, the sum of the values is 79.4 (15.8 + 14.9 + 16.7 + 17.6 + 14.4 = 79.4) and there are 5 values, so the mean is 79.4/5 = 15.88, which rounds to 16.0 to the nearest tenth. Therefore, the correct answer is B.

If A. 15.7 is one of the possible answers, then that is the correct answer. To find the mean of the data set, you add up all the values and then divide by the number of values. In this case, the sum of the values is 79.4 and there are 5 values, so the mean is 79.4/5 = 15.88, which rounds to 15.7 to the nearest tenth. Therefore, the correct answer is A. 15.7.
15.8
If the possible answers are:
A) 15.7
B) 16.2
C) 16.7
D) 19.6
Then the correct answer would be A. 15.7, as the mean of the data set is 15.88, which rounds to 15.9, and then to the nearest tenth it is 15.7.
A) 15.7
B) 16.2
C) 16.7
D) 19.6
Then the correct answer would be A. 15.7, as the mean of the data set is 15.88, which rounds to 15.9, and then to the nearest tenth it is 15.7.
