Question

Two businesses monitored their profits for a week. Which business made the most profit, and what was the average profit per day of that business?

Answer

This is a two part problem. First, we need to find out which business made the most profit during the week. To do this, we simply add up the profits from each day:

Business A:

$1\textup,000+1\textup,200+900+1\textup,100+1\textup,050=5\textup,250$

Business B:

$1\textup,200+800+1\textup,000+1\textup,300+1\textup,000=5\textup,300$

Business B made the most profit, so the answer choices that said Business A made the most profit can be eliminated.

To solve for the mean, we can take our added profits and divide them by the number of addends, which is :

Business A:

$\frac{5\textup,250}{5}=1\textup,050$

Business B:

$\frac{5\textup,300}{5}=1\textup,060$

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

A teacher is comparing two students' median test scores, as show in the dot plots below. Which student had a higher median score, and what was this student's median score?

Answer

The median is the middle number of a set of data points.

To solve for the median, we list our data points in order from least to greatest, and then find the number in the middle.

Student A:

$45,65,65,70,75,75,80,{\color{DarkOrange} 80},80,80,85,85,85,90,100$

Student B:

$40,50,60,65,65,65,70,{\color{DarkOrange} 70},75,75,75,75,80,85,85$

Student A has the higher median score,
