What is the mean of Variable B? ??? http://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/1549000_1549500/1549019/1/dca681026d3f2e2f91e5369e55efb4ed01bb2af9/MS_IMC-141015-108152.jpg

@StudyGurl14

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

First step. Find the coords of every single point on that graph

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Okay....

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

(10,1) (1,2) (4,3) (9,5) (5,6) (3,6) (8,7) (6,7) (7,10) (2,10)

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Right?

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

yep. next step. notice how Vraiable B is on the y-axis? Now list all the y-coords

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Hmmmm um how?

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

I'm not the best at math lol so excuse me if i take awhile to get things xD

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

coords are composed like this (x-value, y-value)

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

sorry, i meant y-value before. not y-coord

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Ohhhhh

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

@jagr2713

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

@jagr2713

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

so...list all the y-values from the coords

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Hmmmm okay 1 second

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

wouldn't it just be the first number of what i have listed?

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

??

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

no. you have to find the mean of all the values of Varible B, which is the y-values

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Omg i dont get this at all :\

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

I'm sorry I wasted your time o.o

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

You're not wasting my time. Here I'll show you

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Okay :\ thanks

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

So, all the y-values from the coords are 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, hilariously enough

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

To find the mean, aka, average, add them up, then divide the amount of numbers (which is 10) \(\Large\frac{1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10}{10}=\frac{55}{10}=5.5\)

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Omg din't i feel stupid :\

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Don't feel stupid. I wasn't explaining it good.

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

Don't wow xD

OpenStudy (twizttiez):

I have a few more the next one is on range now i suck at this so it may take awhile but if you cant help i understand no worries xD

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

range is just the maximum minus the minimum
