  1. Mean= –2278+(–1875) +(–3210)+(–2755)+ (–2407)+(–2901) = = –2571 6 –15,426 ANSWER 6 The mean location in relation to the ocean surface is –2571 feet. EXAMPLE 1 Finding a Mean Biology A marine biologist records the following locations of 6 deep sea jellyfish in relation to the ocean surface: –2278 feet, –1875 feet, –3210 feet, –2755 feet, –2407 feet, and –2901 feet. What is the mean location of the deep sea jellies?
