The dot plot shows the ages of students, in years, on a basketball team. Each dot represents 1 student. Find the mean (rounded to the nearest tenth) and the mode of the data.

Mode = 15

Mean = 12.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

As obtained form the dot plot :

X : 11, 11, 11, 12, 12, 12, 13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 15, 15

The mean of the data:

Mean = ΣX / n

Mean = 179 / 13

Mean = 12.785 = 12.8 years

Mode = most frequently occurring value = 15

option 3 . (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

step-by-step explanation:

option 1 :

(4x + 3) + (-9x + 4)

or 4x+3 -9x + 4

or -5x + 7

option 2

(x - 2) - (6x - 9)

or x-2-6x + 9

or -5x + 7

option 3

(5x+ + 6)

or 5x + 1 + 10x -6

or 15x -5

option 4

-4x+2x+7-3x

-7x + 2x + 7

-5x + 7

hence only option 3 did   not satisfy the given simplify expression.
