Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Correct calculations:
Mean:
Sum the values: 7 + 13 + 5 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 = 55.
Mean = 55/7 = 7.857, which rounds to 8.
Mode:
The value 5 appears twice; all other values appear once. Therefore, mode = 5.
Median:
Sorted data: 5, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 13. With seven values, the middle (4th) value is 7, so median = 7.
Final answer: approximate mean = 8, mode = 5, median = 7. Therefore, option C is correct.
