Means of Tendency

April 27, 2012

Travon is trying to increase his average bowling score. The scores of his first 5 games are as follows: 130, 147, 121, 167, 170.

1. What is his average score? How do you know?

2. What would happen to his average score if he scores a 200 on his 6th game?

3. What would happen to his average score if he scores a 140 on his 6th game?

1.) The average score is 147 because i added all the numbers together and divided them by how many numbers their are which is four.
2.) If he got 200 on his game 6th game the score would get higher.
3.) If he got 140 on his 6th game the scores would decrease.
