Question

Sue played four games of golf for these games her modal score was 98 and her mean score was 100 her range of score was 10 what was her score for the four games

Answer 1

Answer : Remaining two observation becomes 97 and 107.

Explanation :

Since we have given that

Mean = 100

Modal value = 98

Range = 10

As we know that ,

Range = Highest-Lowest

Let highest observation be x

Let lowest observation be y

So equation becomes x-y=10 ----equation 1

So, observation becomes

x,98,98,y

Now, we use the formula of mean i.e.

Mean = $\frac{\text{Sum of observation}}{\text{N.of observaton}}$

So, mean =$\frac{x=98=98+y}{4}=400\\\frac{196+x+y}{4}=100\\x+y=400-196\\x-y=204$

So our 2nd equation becomes

x+y=204

On using elimination method of system of linear equation on these two equation we get,

x=97

and

$x+y=204\\y=204-x\\y=204-97\\y=107$

Hence , remaining two observation becomes 97 and 107.
