OpenStudy (rational):

total how many pennies are there in the table ?

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

336

OpenStudy (rational):

doesn't look correct you're looking at the bottom table where the ages are between 1 to 9, right ?

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

oh no i was looking at the top where it says the following chart gives the ages of 336 pennies drawn from current change

OpenStudy (rational):

i think the question is referring to the bottom table

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

i got 239 adding up all the ones on the bottom under the ages

OpenStudy (rational):

Yes! whats the "mid" value of first 239 positive integers ?

OpenStudy (rational):

239/2 = 119.5 the mid value is 120, so the median would be the "age" corresponding to the 120th penny

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

ohh ok so do i go to the bottom where all the pennies are listed and find the age that its in? because when i did that i got that the age was 2

OpenStudy (rational):

Excellent! the median age is 2 for the bottom table

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

ok thanks!

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

and i got that the mean was 2.8

OpenStudy (rational):

Looks perfect!

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

thank you!!
