yes because if you have categorical data you need the range for the value of the numbers so it would be the same for numerical data

Can the median be used to describe both categorical data and numerical data?
Can the median and mode be used to describe both categorical data and numerical data
Can the median be used to descibe both numerical data and categorical data?
It can be used to describe continuous or discreet data but not categorical or ordered data, unless that data is also numercal which is very unlikely
Can the median be used to describe both a categorical data and numerical data?
No. A median makes no sense for categorical data. For example, if you have 10 red cars, 15 blue cars and 20 black cars, what is the median?
What measure of central tendency can be used for both numerical and categorical variables?
Mode.
Which measure of central tendency can be used for both numerical and categorical variables?
mean
Which measure of central tendency can be used for both numerical and categorical vari?
mode
Can the mean be used to describe both categorical and numerical data?
NO. It can not. You have horses, apples and oranges. What is the mean? You can't add horses, oranges and apples together. And even if you can, you can't divide that answer by a number.
Can the mode be used to describe both categorical and numerical data?
Yes. here is an example: The mode is the most frequent subject that appears in a set of data. So if the data was 2, 5, 5, 7, 10, 10, 10, 10, 11, 12, 13, 13. The mode would be 10 because it appears the most. The mode can be categorical and numerical. I have already proven that the mode can be numerical in the sentences above. For an example of categorical data, say I surveyed some people about what their favorite food was and this was the data: Pizza, pizza, pizza, ice cream, ice cream, strawberries, strawberries, oranges, spaghetti. The mode would have been pizza.
How is word form and expanded form alike?

Why can bar graphs be converted to line graphs?
They can both show the same data. You can use quantitative or categorical data with both of them.
How are numerical and variable expressions similar?
These two are both similar because they are both expressions.
