OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

thats question 2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look at the given dot plot do you see any outlier ?

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Yes

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

The dot on 10

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Exactly, since an outlier is there, "median" is the best measure for center median is robust to outliers as the outliers don't affect median at all.

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

ok so it would be median?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yes

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

ok

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Ill post again if I need help on another question

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

I Dont understand this subject its very odd for me

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Im sorry I feel like its c based on the last

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

but im not sure

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

do you see any outliers here ?

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Yes 2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

so use "inter quartile range" for spread

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Would it be Median again?

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

oh

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

"median", "mean" measure "center "mean absolute deviation". "interquartile range" measure variability

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Ugh Im so confused

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

when you have outliers, use below : 1) median for center 2) interquartile range for variability

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

ok

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

THanks

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

mean absolute deviation right?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

since you have outliers in the given bar chart, you would use "inter quartile range"

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

I got confused and Put in interquartile range

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

I got it wrong but right the second time

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

sorry :/

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats okay

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

so can you give me a Definition for dummy's of mean absolute deviation

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

mean absolute deviation as the name says, it sees how much far away each data value is located from the "mean"

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

ok

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Thanks

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

https://gyazo.com/e305909351cedb8e132801198f44f533 so for this one would I find the mean and then...

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

or is there something else

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

first find the mean

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

ok

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

is the mean 160?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Correct

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Ok

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

Next step?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

see how much far away each of the data point in given table from the mean

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

simply subtract each of the given data point from the mean

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

im confused

OpenStudy (tatumnolan):

what am I subtracting from 160?
