What conclusion can be derived by comparing the central tendencies of the two data sets?

A: {7, 6, 3, 1, 6, 2, 4, 6, 3, 5}

B: {2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 2, 8, 7, 6}

Question

What conclusion can be derived by comparing the central tendencies of the two data sets?

A: {7, 6, 3, 1, 6, 2, 4, 6, 3, 5}

B: {2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 2, 8, 7, 6}

What is another name for central tendency?

anonymous · Answer

i think mean median mode range

anonymous · Answer

Yeah, thats true, in general. So what happens to be the mean of each set?

anonymous · Answer

finding the average of this A: {7, 6, 3, 1, 6, 2, 4, 6, 3, 5}

B: {2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 2, 8, 7, 6}

anonymous · Answer

also, range is more of a measure of variability, rather than central tendency.

anonymous · Answer

i thinks its c or b


The mean of set A is smaller than the mean of set B.

The median of set A is greater than the median of set B.

The median and the mean of set B are greater than those of set A.

The mode of set B is greater than the mode of set A

anonymous · Answer

We would have to compare each. Do you know how to calculate the mean and the median of each set?

anonymous · Answer

put them in order then solve it
