Question

do you mean, what is the 7th score if the average of all 7 is 113?

anonymous · Answer

If that is what you mean the:
$$(325+198 + 262 + 301 + 275 + 229 + x)/7=113$$
Multiply by seven to get rid of the fraction:
$$1590+x=791$$
Less 1590 to get the value of x:

$$x=-799$$

No, actually here is the problem: if Meagan scored 325, 198,  262, 301, 275, and 229 points in a game, what score would she have in the seventh game if the range is 113? It is just a 5th grade math problem, but we can't figure it out...

lol.... it sounds like "range" might be a soccer term then.  Otherwise it has no meaning in the question that a mathmaticer can relate to.  "Range" in math referes to the output of a given function or equation. And is only determined by the "domain" of the function - the domain of course being all of the values for "x" that are acceptable to use.

i have no idea, we were working on mean, median, mode and range. all of the other questions made sense, but this one somehow did not.
