(C) Yes, the total is 1884.
(D) No, we would need to know the ten individual scores.
(E) No, we would need to know the standard deviation.



Answer :

Answer :

  • (C) Yes, the total is 1884.

Explanation :

total score of first 10 members = average score*no. of players

  • = 156*10
  • = 1560

now,to find the grand total ,we add the first 10 scores and the latter two scores

  • = 1560 + 173 + 151
  • = 1884 .

Answer:

(C) Yes, the total is 1884.

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, we have enough information to find the total of all 12 scores.

Given that the average score of the first 10 members is 156, we can find the total score of the first 10 members by multiplying the average score by the number of members:

[tex]\textsf{Total score of first 10 members} = \textsf{Average score}\times \textsf{Number of members}\\\\\textsf{Total score of first 10 members} = 156 \times 10\\\\\textsf{Total score of first 10 members} = 1560[/tex]

Therefore, the total score of the first 10 members is 1560.

Given that the scores of the 11th and 12th members are 173 and 151 respectively, we simply add these to the total score of the first 10 members to find the total score of all 12 members of the team:

[tex]\textsf{Total score of 12 members} = 1560+173+151\\\\\textsf{Total score of 12 members} = 1733+151\\\\\textsf{Total score of 12 members} = 1884[/tex]

So, the total of all 12 scores is:

[tex]\LARGE\boxed{\boxed{1884}}[/tex]
