The diver's scores are
9.5 10.0 9.0 10.0 10.0
To calculate the total score, we follow the rules given:
Rule 1: Order the scores from least to greatest:
Hence, the scores are
9.0 9.5 10.0 10.0 10.0
Rule 2: Cross off the lowest score and the highest score:
The remaining scores will be
9.5 10.0 10.0
Rule 3: Find the sum of the remaining scores:
This will be given as
[tex]\begin{gathered} 9.5+10.0+10.0 \\ =29.5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Rule 4: Multiply the sum by the difficulty of the dive:
The difficulty of the dive is 3.8.
Therefore, we have
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3.8\times29.5 \\ =112.1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the total score is 112.1
