What if there is no most often occurring number?
Then the data doesn't have a mode.
Would you use mean mode median to average the points?
mean is the average of numbers in the data set mode is the most frequently occurring value in a data set and median is the middle number of the data set so you would use mean
When would you use a circle graph to represent data?
Anytime.
What type of graph would be best to represent numerical data?
BAR ;)
What describes the nature of data that represent the number of pets in a us household Is this population or sample?
Population

What type of data does a line graph represent?
Stocks, or anything that would rise or decrease.fdIt would represent continuous data, rather than discrete data. Continuous data would be something like height, which increases by fractional amounts, and since a line can represent any length between 5 and 6 ft. (like 5.25 or 5.379) a line is used to represent height. Number of customers would be discrete data, represented by discontinuous dots, since you can only have whole customers, and not parts of customers. Between 5 and 6 customers, there would be no line, since a line would show that there can be parts of customers between 5 and 6.
Which measure would you use to represent 12 13 10 14 9 11 15?
The answer depends on what characteristic of the data set you wish to represent. I suggest you use the number of observations, 7.

What do bars do in a bar graph?
The demonstrate a set of data; as in for example: How many people like dogs vs. cats?Your bars would say the numbers of people who like dogs and the people who like cats, then you know your outcome!
How does the outlier affect the range of a data set?
Range subtracts the lowest value from the value in your data set. If you have an outlier, meaning a number either obviously outside the data, your range will be incorrect because one of the values will not represent the average pattern of the data. For example: if your data values include 1,2,3,4,and 17, 17 would be the outlier. The range would be 16 which is not truly representative of the rest of the data.
What type of graph uses an X above a number line to represent each number in a set of data?
This graph is called the x graph.
What is the most occurring value in a data set?
The mode
Would the mean median or mode represent data best?
It depends on the data and sometimes on what you are trying to show with the data. All of them are indicators of central tendency and have different uses.
