PLEASE HELP ME!!! will fan and medal!!!! For the data set {14, 10, 10, 23, 14, 10, 17}, which measures of center best describe the data? Choose all answers that are correct. A.mean B.mode C. median

OpenStudy (anonymous):

these questions always confuse me

OpenStudy (perl):

under what conditions would median be preferable to use as center of measure versus the mean

OpenStudy (perl):

mode is best for dichotomous variables

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mean describes better the data, mode gives you an idea of how your values are distributed, Median lets you know where all the data is focused.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, and which variable is this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so which one is best for this problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hello?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks anyway

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am still confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C. Median is the middle number :3

OpenStudy (perl):

median is the data point such that 50% of the data is below it, and 50% of the data is above it (approximately).
