Find the mean of 12, 15, 7, 8 and ‘x +13’, if $x = 2$
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Numbers are = 12, 15, 7, 8, (x + 13)
⇒ where x = 2,
⇒ 12, 15, 7, 8, (2 + 13)
⇒ 12, 15, 7, 8, 15
$Mean = \frac{Sum\, of\, all\, no.}{Total\,no.} = \frac{12\;+\;15\;+\;7\;+\;8\;+\;15}{5} = \frac{57}{5}=11.4$
