Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The four pieces of wood are 36 in., 36 in., 37 in. and z in.

The mean length of the pieces of woods are 36 in

We need to find the length of the fourth piece of wood.

Mean = sum of data/total no of data

[tex]36=\dfrac{36+36+37+z}{4}\\\\144=109+z\\\\z=144-109\\\\z=35\ in.[/tex]

So, the length of fourth piece is 35 inches. Hence, the correct option is (c).
