Find the arithmetic mean of $$$4$$$, $$$6$$$, $$$1$$$, $$$2$$$, $$$3$$$.
Solution
The arithmetic mean of data is given by the formula $$$\mu = \bar{x} = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n} x_{i}}{n}$$$, where $$$n$$$ is the number of values and $$$x_i, i=\overline{1..n}$$$ are the values themselves.
Since we have $$$5$$$ points, $$$n = 5$$$.
The sum of the values is $$$4 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 3 = 16$$$.
Therefore, the arithmetic mean is $$$\mu = \bar{x} = \frac{16}{5}$$$.
Answer
The arithmetic mean is $$$\mu = \frac{16}{5} = 3.2$$$A.
