Adding these scores together gives us 3 + 7 + 9 + 10 + 8 = 37. Since there are 5 quizzes, we divide 37 by 5 to get the mean score, which is 7.4.

    Correct Answer
    A. 4.4
    Explanation
    The mean score of the students can be found by adding up all the scores and then dividing the sum by the total number of scores. In this case, the sum of the scores is 4.4 + 4.5 + 5 + 7 = 21.9. Since there are 4 scores, the mean score is 21.9 divided by 4, which equals 5.475. However, since the mean score is typically rounded to one decimal place, the correct answer is 4.4.

    Correct Answer
    D. 161
    Explanation
    The median height of the athletes can be found by arranging the heights in ascending order and then selecting the middle value. In this case, the heights are already arranged in ascending order. Since there is an odd number of heights (4), the middle value is the third height, which is 160. Therefore, the median height of the athletes is 160.

      161.1

    • D.

      2577

    Correct Answer
    C. 161.1
    Explanation
    The mean height can be found by summing up all the heights and dividing by the total number of heights. In this case, the sum of the heights is 160 + 161.1 + 2577 = 2898.1. Since there are 3 heights, the mean height is 2898.1 divided by 3, which equals 966.03. However, the given answer of 161.1 is incorrect.
