The table provides on road accidents reported to the police for the days in December Accidents reported Frequency
0-5 9
6-10 10
11-15 6
16-20 6

Estimate the mean.
Give your answer rounded to 1 DP.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let accidents reported be represented by x and the frequency be represented by f

x -----   f

0-5 --   9

6-10 --  10

11-15 --   6

16-20 -- 6

Required

Calculate the Mean;

To calculate the mean of a grouped data, the first step is to calculate the midpoint of the observation;

When x = 0 - 5

Midpoint = 0.5(0 + 5) = 0.5 * 5 = 2.5

When x = 6 - 10

Midpoint = 0.5(6 + 10) = 0.5 * 16 = 8

When x = 11 - 15

Midpoint = 0.5(11 + 15) = 0.5 * 26 = 13

When x = 16 - 20

Midpoint = 0.5(16 + 20) = 0.5 * 36 = 18.

So, the new table is as follows;

x ------- f

2.5 ----  9

8 -----  10

13 ------ 6

18 ------ 6

Mean is calculated by ∑fx/∑f

Where ∑fx represent sum of the product of f and x

∑f represent sum of frequency

∑fx = 2.5 * 9 + 8 * 10 + 13 * 6 + 18 * 6

∑fx = 288.5

∑f = 9 + 10 + 6 + 6

∑f = 31

So,

Hence, the mean of road accidents in December is 9.3

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
