Q. Katy has the following data:7,10,13,y,10,10If the mean is 10, which number could y be?Choices:(A)10(B)4
Calculate Sum and Total: Calculate the sum of the given numbers excluding y and the total number of numbers.Sum excluding y=7+10+13+10+10=50.Total numbers = 6.
Set Up Mean Equation: Set up the equation for the mean and solve for y.Mean=10.10=650+y.60=50+y.
Solve for y: Solve for y.y=60−50.y=10.
