Question

The dot plot shows how many attempts it took for each student to complete a puzzle:

Dot plot titled Puzzle Attempts and labeled Number of Attempts shows number line from 1 to 10. There are no dots over 1 and 10, 1 dot over 2 and 9, 2 dots over 3 and 8, 3 dots over 4 and 7, 5 dots over 5 and 6.

Is the median or the mean a better measure of center for these data and why?

Mean, because the data are skewed and there are outliers
Mean, because the data are symmetric and there are no outliers
Median, because the data are skewed and there are outliers
Median, because the data are symmetric and there are no outliers

Answer 1

what can you eliminate automaticaly

Answer 2

i was getting to explaining i just steped away to do some math jeez

Answer 3

this is what your number line looks like the definition of symmetrical is "made up of exactly similar parts facing each other or around an axis" and if your axis is placed on the halfway point of this line between 5 and 6 I believe you have symmetry. that is why I believe a and c are incorrect answers

Answer 4

a median is the middle number in a sorted group of numbers either smallest to biggest or biggest to smallest
a mean is a type of average number found buy adding all the numbers up and dividing them by the ammount of numbers added up as so
