Answer 5

well the right side is positive and the left side is negative so the number 24 is on the right side which makes it positive

Answer 6

well a simple way to do this question is to arrange the data in ascending order.

The data has a definite skew, and when skewness occurs the median is the bset measure of the centre.

here is an image showing the different type of skewness

Answer 7

i would say mode is the best measure of centrality

1
7
12
14
17
18, 18
23, 23, 23, 23 <-- mode = median in this case
24
27
28
29
32
33
38
43

Answer 8

the direction of the mean from the mode tells us the direction of the skew.

22.7 is the left of the mode
