Question

Use the table to answer the question.

Ball 1 2 3 4 5 6
Weight 12 7 8 9 10 11
The table shows the bowling ball options at a local bowling alley. What is the sample mean of ball 2 and ball 4?

(1 point)

Answer 1

To find the sample mean of ball 2 and ball 4, we first need to calculate the total weight of balls 2 and 4.

Weight of ball 2 = 7
Weight of ball 4 = 9

Total weight = 7 + 9 = 16

Now, to find the sample mean, we divide the total weight by the number of balls (2 in this case):

Sample mean = Total weight / Number of balls
Sample mean = 16 / 2
Sample mean = 8

Therefore, the sample mean of ball 2 and ball 4 is 8.
