A student downloaded a new game on her phone that was recommended by her friend. She wanted to show her friend how good she was doing, so she wrote down all her scores on the game. Her first five scores on the game were 432, 543, 348, 788, and 823.
On the two questions below, round to the nearest whole number when relevant.
a. What is her mean, or average, score on the game?
b. What is her median score on the game?

a. 587

b. 543

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Mean = sum / number of numbers

To find the sum, we can add the numbers up.

432 + 543 + 348 + 788 + 823 = 2934

There are 5 numbers. Our mean is thus

2934/5 = 586.8, or 587 when rounding up. We round up because we have a .8 at the end, and 8 ≥ 5

b. To find the median, we first must order the numbers. The numbers ordered are this:

348 ,  432 , 543 , 788 , 823

To find the median, we can cross off one number on each side until we are left with one or two numbers.

348 ,  432 , 543 , 788 , 823

cross out one number from each endpoint

432 , 543 , 788

cross out one number from each endpoint

543

graphically?   well, you graph them both, the solutions is where they both intersect each other, since there are two solutions, meaning they will meet twice, or namely the linear will run into the quadratic curve twice, and where they meet, those x,y coordinates are the solutions to the system.
