Question

find the mean of 10, 4, 2, 8 graphically.
10 + 4 + 2 + 8 = 24
average = \frac{24}{4} = 6
spread out the values into even stacks.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the sum of the data

$$10 + 4 + 2 + 8 = 24$$

Step2: Calculate the number of data points

There are \(4\) data points (\(10\), \(4\), \(2\), \(8\)).

Step3: Calculate the mean

The formula for the mean \(\bar{x}=\frac{\sum_{i = 1}^{n}x_{i}}{n}\), where \(\sum_{i = 1}^{n}x_{i}\) is the sum of data and \(n\) is the number of data points. Substituting the values: \(\frac{24}{4}=6\)

Answer:

\(6\)
