Question

Of 100 people who played a certain video game, 85 scored more than 0 but less  than 10,000 points, 14 scored between 10,000 and 100,000 points, and the remaining player scored 5,350,000 points. Which of the following statements about  the mean and median of the 100 scores is true?

  1. The mean is greater than the median
  2. The median is greater than the mean.
  3. The mean and the median are equal
  4. There is not enough information to determine whether the mean or the median is  greater.

The correct answer is: The mean is greater than the median


    0 – 10000                                          85
    10000 – 100000                                14
    text  Mean  end text equals fraction numerator 5000 cross times 85 plus 55000 cross times 14 plus 5350000 cross times 1 over denominator 100 end fraction
    = 120700
    Median = 100 over 2 equals 50 lies in 0 – 10000
    Mean > median

    Under the right conditions, giant sequoia trees are the fastest-growing conifer on  Earth. In good growing conditions, a giant sequoia free will form a 1-inch growth ring each year, increasing the size of its trunk diameter by 2 inches per year.  This relationship is represented in the graph below. A giant sequoia tree can also  grow 4 feet vertically every three years.
