Respuesta :

The mean of the given data is 1 point higher than the median.

The scores gathered by Eric are:

588, 838, 691, 818, 846, 725, 605, 732, 750.

Let us calculate the mean of the above scores:

Mean = (588+838+691+818+846+725+605+732+750)/9

Mean = 732.55 approx. 733(say)

What is the median?

The median is the middle number in a sorted, ascending, or descending, list of numbers and can be more descriptive of that data set than the average.

To calculate the median we need to arrange the data either in ascending or descending order.

Let us arrange the data in ascending order as follows:

588, 605, 691, 725, 732, 750, 818, 838, 846

We know that the median is the middle number.

So median = 732

Therefore, we can say that the mean is 1 point higher than the median.
