3.066

Step-by-step solution

2 steps

The given data points are: 2.75,2.86,3.57,2.62,3.49,3.05,3.122.75, 2.86, 3.57, 2.62, 3.49, 3.05, 3.12.
The number of data points is n=7n=7.

  1. Calculate the Mean (xˉ\bar{x})

    The formula for the mean is:

    xˉ=∑xn\bar{x} = \frac{\sum x}{n}

    First, sum all the data points:

    ∑x=2.75+2.86+3.57+2.62+3.49+3.05+3.12=21.46\sum x = 2.75 + 2.86 + 3.57 + 2.62 + 3.49 + 3.05 + 3.12 = 21.46

    Now, divide the sum by the number of data points:

    xˉ=21.467≈3.065714\bar{x} = \frac{21.46}{7} \approx 3.065714

    Rounding to three decimal places:

    xˉ≈3.066\bar{x} \approx 3.066

    The mean is 3.066\boxed{3.066}.

  2. Calculate the Range

    The range is the difference between the maximum and minimum values in the dataset.
    First, identify the minimum and maximum values:
