Hello! How can I help you, today?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By answering my question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We can't just give you the answer, you need to at least try.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did 2 times

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know how to find the minimum?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's the lowest term of the group of numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so from 12, 13, 13, 17, 18, 19, 27 what would be the lowest term?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There you go. Do you know the maximum?

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

The minimum is 12!! This rules out Choice B. Throw it out. Never look at it again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whats the range how do i find it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The range is when you take the maximum and subtract it by the minimum. So in this case you'd take 27 - 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

The maximum is 27!! Too bad, the remaining choice, ACD, all have that right. Nothing new is eliminated.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since it's 15, that rules out D

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Down with D!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B and D are ruled out, leaving A and C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know how to find the mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The number thats shown the most

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, that's mode

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol k12 dont teach me anything

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You add up all the terms and divide by the amount of terms there are

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12+13+13+17+18+19+27=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

119. Now you divide it by the amount of terms. There are 7 terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

119/7 equals what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

17

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There you go. A and C are still left Do you know how to find the median?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's the median?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

17

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There you go and now the only one that has 17 as the median between A and C is C C is your answer. Good Job!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks
