Question

The following data show the lengths of boats moored in a marina. The data are ordered from smallest to largest:

1414; 1717; 1717; 2020; 2020; 2121; 2323; 2424; 2525; 2525; 2525; 2626; 2626; 2727; 2727; 2727; 2828; 2929; 2929; 3232; 3333; 3333; 3434; 3535; 3737; 3939; 4141

  1. Calculate the mean.

    Round your answer to two decimal places.
     

     

  2. Identify the median.

    Enter the exact answer.
     

     

  3. Identify the mode.
     

    The field below accepts a list of numbers or formulas separated by semicolons (e.g. 2;4;62;4;6 or x+1;x−1�+1;�−1). The order of the list does not matter.
     

      

 
 
Expert Solution
Step 1

Sol:-

To calculate the mean, we add up all the lengths and divide by the total number of boats:

Mean = (1414 + 1717 + 1717 + 2020 + 2020 + 2121 + 2323 + 2424 + 2525 + 2525 + 2525 + 2626 + 2626 + 2727 + 2727 + 2727 + 2828 + 2929 + 2929 + 3232 + 3333 + 3333 + 3434 + 3535 + 3737 + 3939 + 4141) / 27 Mean = 81668 / 27 Mean ≈ 3021.04

Therefore, the mean length of the boats is approximately 3021.04.
