Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing number can be calculated by using the formula:

mean = (sum of data)÷(number of data points)

15 = [tex]\frac{18+16+x+9+12+23}{6}[/tex]

90 = 18+16+x+9+12+23

x=90-18-16-9-12-23

x=12

To check, just take the mean while including the found value for x:

mean = [tex]\frac{18+16+12+9+12+23}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{90}{6}[/tex] = 15
