Mean.
What is measure of center?
the center of measure is mean mode median and range
What provides a measure of central location for the data?
mean
What does the standard error mean?
For a sample of data it is a measure of the spread of the observations about their mean value.

Why is mean a measure of the center of the data?
mean does not mean the center of the data
Which numerical measure of center is most affected by extremely high or low numeric data?
Mean.
What measure of center best represents data?
The answer depends on the type of data. The mean or median are useless if the data are qualitative (categoric): only the mode is any use. The median is better than the mean is the data are very skewed.
What is measure of center?
the center of measure is mean mode median and range
What is the measure of center?
the center of measure is mean mode median and range
What statement about the data is true 724 727 996 712 725 704 730 710 Both the median and mode are appropriate measures of center. The median is the only appropriate measure of center. The mean media?
There is no mode so it is not a measure of anything! Te data set contains an outlier: 996 and so the median is a better measure of the centre than the mean.
What does measure of center?
If we are building things, I would assume it means 'take a measure from the center to the edge'It could also mean 'the size of the center'In mathematics the 'measure of center' is the means how to determinate the center most of a data set.(elementary statistics) The four measures of center are mean, median, mode, and mid-rangeMean -- The mean is what you know as the average. It is calculated by taking all of the values in a set and dividing them by the total number of values in that set.Median -- The median is the number that is in the middle of a data set that is organized from lowest to highest or from highest to lowest.Mode - The mode is the number that repeats most often in a data set.Midrange - The midrange is calculated by adding the highest and lowest values of a data set together, and dividing the sum by 2.
What does measure of center mean?
Plotting data in a frequency distribution shows the general shape of the distribution and gives a general sense of how the numbers are bunched. Several statistics can be used to represent the "center" of the distribution. These statistics are commonly referred to as measures of central tendency.
What is a measure for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number?
Center
What is the arithmetic mean of a data set is the measure of center?
It is one measure - not the only one - of a "central tendency". It is the same as the "average". To calculate the average, just add all the numbers, and divide the result by the amount of numbers.
Which measure of varartion is preferred when the mean is used as the measure of center?
standard deviation
What does range tell us that mode does not?
Range is a measure of variation; mode is a measure of center. Range will tell you how much the data vary, mode does not tell you how much the data vary.
