What is (are) the mode(s)? iii. Does it make sense to talk about the average for this data? Why or

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why or why not? iv. Using your frequency table draw a pie chart to display the distribution of home states by filling in the following table:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is the rest of the question along with the attachment.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I cannot figure out what the mode(s) is, the percntage total is and the measure of central angle is in degrees.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the mode is south carolina, since four professors have it as their home state.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont know what percentage total is. measure of central angle for a statistics problem? are you sure you posted it correctly? did you mean measure of central tendency?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Measure of Central Angle (in degrees)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the percentage total is the percentage of each of a piece of the pie that is in the pie chart.

sine there is onle one in florida is would be 1/21=4.76%. I did this with all of them over and over an i could not get to a hundred percent no matter how hard i try. am i missing somethins in th the way that i am calculating teh percentage or what.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you meant percentage OF total. that totally changes it. you couldn't get 100 percent because there are only 20 professors there underneath the pie chart. If you add them all up, you get 20, not 21.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on please let me recalculaot my problem please.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in the problem it says 2 for wisconsin. you have put 1 for wisconsin under the pie chart

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wisconsin should be 2 not 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would you figure out the degrees.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats simple. total central angle is 360. so 4/21 times 360 is the central angle for north caroilina and so on.
