a basketball coach keeps track of the points scored per game for all her players.she gives a trophy to the player with the highest mean score at the end of the season. which of the following justifies why she uses the mean instead of the median.

Answer:
She wants to take unusually good and unusually bad games into account
Step-by-step explanation:
As, while calculating mean, we take into account all the observations be it very low or very high
But while calculating the Median,we arrange our observations in the increasing order and then we check the middle of all observations.
In this way we don't take into account of all the observations and in this way the high and low values i.e. extreme values are neglected.
Hence, the correct option is:
She wants to take unusually good and unusually bad games into account
