Question

Am I right? Medal. :)

Given the box plot, will the mean or the median provide a better description of the center?

Answer 1

The mean, because the data distribution is symmetrical
The mean, because the data distribution is skewed to the left
The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the left
The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the right

Answer 2

I think its C because data that is skewed left means that the mean value is lower than the median.

Answer 4

Hold on..

Answer 5

I think you're right.

Answer 6

Good, I was getting tripped up by B because I thought that if it wasn't the median it would be symmetrical. Thanks iGreen.

Answer 7

Yep, I got it right. :)
