Homework for Tuesday, September 12

Assignment: Mean, Median, Mode ws (link!)
This IS a longer assignment, so take your time to be accurate as it will save you more time in the future.  You must turn in your work with this assignment whether it is on the front or back of the worksheet OR on another sheet of paper that you staple to the worksheet.
*First, create your ordered list.
*Count carefully the number of numbers in each set of data; you want to divide by the correct number.
*Add carefully when determining your mean, otherwise you will end up with crazy numbers as answers.  Please note that crazy numbers as answers mean you did something incorrectly, so rather than divide incessantly, add the numbers up again.
*Note that the "mean" may be a decimal; you may also write it as a fraction or with a remainder if you need to.  As a hint, this only applies to the "Test Scores" and "Homerun" mean categories.  The only mode with a decimal answer is "Hourly Wages."
Accuracy is extremely important in math, so work carefully with no distractions.  Again, you may not use calculators and all of your work must be turned in with the assignment.
Due Wednesday
