The heights (in inches) of the starting players on a high school basketball team are as follows: 72, 75, 78, 72, 73.
1. How many starting players are there?
2. What is the mean height?
3. What is the median height?
4. Does one measure describe the data better than the other? Explain.

1. 5

2. 74

3. 73.

4. The median is better than the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = (72+72+73+75+78) / 5

= 74.

Median = middle number of 72 72 73 75 78  which is 73.

There is nobody of height 74 so the median (73),  which is the height of one of the players,  is the better measure.

well what you have to do is divide 84 by 6 so theanswer

step-by-step explanation:

84 divided by 6 = 14

and that lightbulb changing party must be freaking lit!
