Answer 6

@Preetha

Answer 7

keep in mind that the first amount of tv's is 0 but you do have to add it when you devide by the number of households

Answer 8

the mean is the most often used number, so you can find the answer by taking every tally and multiplying it by the number of sets, then divide it by the number of students.

(0*1) + (1*8) + (2*9) + (3*4) + (4*3) = 50

50 / ( 1 + 8 + 9 + 4 + 3 ) = 2

Answer 9

it says WORKING° TV's also

Answer 10

no that is mode

Answer 11

assume all listed tv's are working

Answer 12

mode is most often used, sorry, mean is the average.

Answer 13

the mode would be 2 as well though.

Answer 14

but one kid deasnt have a tv so that doesn't count

Answer 15

doesnt*

Answer 16

he does count, he has 0 working T.V.'s in his house, so his data still matters.

Answer 17

it does count towards the number of households, not towards the tvs

Answer 18

hold on a minute

Answer 19

so then that is 24 / 5

Answer 20

24/5?

Answer 21

divided

Answer 22

why would it be 24/5? xD

Answer 23

24 ÷ 5

Answer 24

I explained how the mean works and how you can find it with data sets, look at my first responce.

Answer 25

/ = ÷

Answer 26

@amistre64

Answer 27

but, it still would be 2 wouldn't it?

Answer 28

yes

Answer 29

I don't get it thou

Answer 30

I shouldn't have to go through that proccess

Answer 31

why not?

Answer 32

it should be 1 + 8 + 9 + 4 + 3 ÷ 5

Answer 33

simple

Answer 34

but, that doesnt work

Answer 35

but you're finding the average number o T.V. sets, not the average number of people with a non-zero amount of T.V. sets in a given classroom.

Answer 36

OHHHHHHHH, I GET IT NOW

Answer 37

that, I feel like an idiot, maybe I am D:

Answer 38

you're actually counting each T.V. set, so the long math would look like
0+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+3+3+3+3+4+4+4 / however many students there are

Answer 39

needs more 2s n' stuff, but you get the point, rather than typing two nine times, you can just type (2*9)
