To find Paula's mean score, first add her total points: she scored 8 points in three games and 0 points in one game, giving her a total of 8 points. Then, divide this total by the number of games played: 8 points ÷ 4 games = 2 points. Therefore, Paula's mean score for the four games is 2 points.
Players score in tennis by winning points. Points are earned by hitting the ball over the net and into the opponent's court in a way that the opponent cannot return it successfully. The first player to reach a certain number of points wins the game, and the first player to win a certain number of games wins the set. The player who wins the majority of sets wins the match.
Games that follow the principle of having the lowest score as the winning condition include golf, where the objective is to complete the course with the fewest strokes, and certain card games like Cribbage, where players aim to minimize their points. Additionally, in games like "Uno" and "Rummy," players often try to achieve the lowest score by getting rid of high-point cards. These games emphasize strategy and skill in minimizing points rather than maximizing them.

To find out what she must score in game 6 to achieve a mean of 12 points per game, first determine the total points needed after 6 games. If she wants a mean of 12 points, she needs a total of 12 points/game × 6 games = 72 points. If she has already played 5 games and scored a total of X points, then in game 6 she must score 72 - X points to reach the desired mean.
The object of an invasion sport is to go into the opposition's side of the pitch in order to score points/goals etc. Examples of such games are rugby, football (American and English, hockey etc.
If the average score in 6 games is 20 points, that translates to 120 points total 6 games. 5 game scores are: 23 + 18 + 16 + 24 + 27 = 108. Subtract 108 from 120 and the sixth game score is 12.
