Step 1) record the x coordinate of each point. This is because the variable A is along the x axis Step 2) Add up those x coordinates you wrote down in step 1 Step 3) Divide the result in step 2 by 10 because there are 10 points, so there are 10 x coordinates recorded in step 1 and added up in step 2

Thank you @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you're welcome

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

is it 4.2?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

before you divided by 10, what did you get

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

42

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I'm not getting 42. Try it again. List out the values you're adding up please.

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

okay i added up 5 2 4 6 2 8 10

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

keep in mind that there are 2 points that have an x coordinate of x = 2 there are 2 points that have an x coordinate of x = 5 there are 2 points that have an x coordinate of x = 7

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

so i add 2+2 5+5 and 7+7?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yeah along with the other x coordinates

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

i got 56 now do i divide by 10?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

5.6 is my answer right

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
