This year, John played in 10 baseball games. In these games he had hit the ball 2,3,1,1,3,2,4,6,2, and x times. The mean is 3 hits per game. Find the missing value

Respuesta :

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the average so set up an equation that adds up all the points and divides them by the total, set equal to 3, and solve for x

(2+3+1+1+3+2+4+6+2+x)/10 = 3

(24 + x)/10 = 3

24 + x = 30

x = 6

To check if this is correct, add up all the numbers and divide by 10.

2+3+1+1+3+2+4+6+2+6 = 30/10 = 3
