  1. Some researchers wanting to understand g-loads on humans are interested in methods that can be used to assist pilots withstanding g-loads. To study this in a controlled environment, they need to develop a standardized way to safely measure g-loads in the research participants. One way that they can do this is to have participants experience a certain g-load and give them a simple calculation to perform. Nine participants (A thru I) were required to repeat each test three times (attempts) and the results are shown in the table below. Calculate the mean, mode, and median for each for each attempt (row). Assume no units.

 

Attempt Participant
A B C D E F G H I
1 15 18 13 14 15 15 16 17 18
2 12 9 10 11 17 12 16 16 16
3 17 18 18 18 20 21 24 22 21
