Use the dot plot to answer the question.

A dot plot that has 3 dots at 1, 4 dots at 2, 3 dots at 3, 4 dots at 4, 5 dots at 5, & 3 dots at 6.

What is the mean of the data set in the dot plot?

Enter your answer as a number rounded to the nearest tenth, like this: 42.5

Mean of the data set in the dot plot would be: 3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that Mean from the dot plot can be obtained by:

Please check the attached figure where the dot plot is also plotted.

From the dot plot, it is clear that

There are 3 dots at 1.

There are 4 dots at 2.

There are 3 dots at 3.

There are 4 dots at 4.

There are 5 dots at 5.

There are 3 dots at 6.

All we have to do is to add the dots and divide the sum by the number of addend dots.

In other words:

There are 3 dots at 1    ⇒  1+1+1

There are 4 dots at 2   ⇒  2+2+2+2

There are 3 dots at 3   ⇒   3+3+3

There are 4 dots at 4   ⇒   4+4+4+4

There are 5 dots at 5   ⇒   5+5+5+5+5

There are 3 dots at 6   ⇒   6+6+6

As there are total 22 dots.

And the sum of all the dots with respect to their plot number = 79

i.e. 1+1+1+2+2+2+2+3+3+3+4+4+4+4+5+5+5+5+5+6+6+6 = 79

Thus

Mean of the data set in the dot plot = 79/22

                                                            = 3.6

Therefore, Mean of the data set in the dot plot would be: 3.6
