Data Analysis - PSAT Math

We cannot just take the average of the ages 25 and 40, which is 32.5 years old.

Instead, we need to take a weighted average, taking into account the varying number of people in each group.

Take the average age of each group and multiply it by the number of people in that group and then take the sum. Next divide by the total number of people to get the weighted average age of the new group.

(20 * 25 + 10 * 40)/30 = 30

The easiest way to solve this is to consider the total scores as follows:

Group 1: 81 * 24 = 1944

Group 2: 74 * 2 = 148

Therefore, the total percentage points earned for the class is 148 + 1944 = 2092. The new class average will be 2092/26 or 80.46. (For our purposes, this is 80.46%.)

You must first find what x is in order to find the median.

To find x, set up the following equation:

To solve the equation, first multiply both sides by 5:

5 + 10 + 12 + 15 + x = 55

Then, add up 5 + 10 + 12 + 15 to get 42:

42 + x = 55

x = 13

Now that you know what x is, you are ready to find the median. To find the median, order the numbers from lowest to highest. The median is the number in the middle.

5, 10, 12, 13, 15

The mode is 3 and subtracting 3 from 2.5 gives -0.5.

Mode is the most frequently occuring number in a set. 6 appears most frequently since there are 2 sixes but the rest of the numbers only appear once. The mode is 6

The mode is the number that appears the most

The mode is the number that appears the most in a given set of numbers

One can simply add all the odd numbers from 7 to 21 and divide by the number of odd numbers there are. Or, moreover, one can see that 14 is halfway between 7 and 21.

The minutes must be converted to hours which gives 11/12 hours. The total distance he runs is 11 miles. 11/(11/12) = 12.

To help answer this question, we can construct a two-way table and fill in our known quantities from the question.

The columns of the table will represent the students who have a laptop or do not have a laptop and the rows will contain the students who have a car or do not have a car. The first bit of information that we were given from the question was that students had a laptop; therefore, needs to go in the "laptop" column as the row total. Next, we were told that of those students, owned a car; therefore, we need to put in the "laptop" column and in the "car" row. Then, we were told that students do not own a laptop, but own a car, so we need to put in the "no laptop" column and the "car" row. Finally, we were told that students do not have a laptop or a car, so needs to go in the "no laptop" column and "no car" row. If done correctly, you should create a table similar to the following:

Our question asked how many students have a laptop, but do not own have a car. We can take the total number of students that own a lap top, , and subtract the number of students who have a car,

This means that students who have a laptop, don't have a car.

Our question asked how many students do not have a laptop. We add up the numbers in the "no laptop" column to get the total:

This means that students do not have a laptop.

To find the average you add all the games and divide by the number of games. In this case we have 112 + 134 + x = 246 + x. If we divide by 3 and set our answer to 132, we can solve for x by cross multiplying and solving algebraically. We can also solve this problem using substitution.
