Median of a data is 20 If each is obesrvation in the data is increased by 2 then what is the new median?
the new median is the same as that of old one. i.e 20 * * * * * If every observation is increased by 2, the new median is 2 more than the old median.
If you have more than one median what do you do?
If you have an even set of data then there are two middle numbers or medians. Average those two and create a median. Example: 2,3,4,7,9,10 4 and 7 are in the middle. (4+7)/2=5.5 5.5 is the median even though it is not one of the numbers in the data set.
Can you get the same median if you add two more numbers?
yes, depending on what your numbers are, you would need for one to be higher and one lower than your current median, it's always the number in the middle or the average of the 2 middle if it's an even amount of variables.
Is the mean influenced more than the median by a few extreme scores at one end of the distribution?
Yes. The mean uses the actual value of each observation. The value(s) of only the middle observation (or pair of middle observations) is required for the median. For all other observations, the median is concerned only with whether it is larger or smaller than it is.
Does all statistical data have a mean median or mode?
It depends on the definition of mode. If mode is simply the most frequently occurring outcome and more than one outcome in the sample space is allowed to be the mode, then all datasets do have a mean, median, and mode.
Can a mean average ever be higher than a median average?
Yes. If the predominant data are higher than the median, the mean average will be higher than the median average. For example, the median average of the numbers one through ten is five. The mean average is five and one-half.
Can there be more than one median to a number?
No and a single number cannot have a median either you need a series (at least two) to have a median.
Median of a data is 20 If each is obesrvation in the data is increased by 2 then what is the new median?
the new median is the same as that of old one. i.e 20 * * * * * If every observation is increased by 2, the new median is 2 more than the old median.
The median score on a test is 90 is it possible to add two more scores to the data and still have a median score of 90 explain?
180
If you get more than one median what do you do?
There is only one median in a set of values. If it is an odd amount of values, the median is the middle number. If there is an even amount of numbers, the median is the value halfway between the two middle numbers. So, in 1, 2, 3; the median is 2. In 1, 2, 3, 4; the median is 2.5, as that is halfway between 2 and 3.
Can there be more than one median in a data set?
No.There is only 1 middle value.If there are an odd number of elements in the data set, the median is the middle one;Otherwise there are an even number of elements in the data set and the median is the mean average of the middle two (add them together and divide by 2).The median value can occur more than once in the data set, eg in {2, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7} the median is 5 ((5 + 5)/2 = 5) with a frequency of 3, but it is still only one value.
What is the median of 23 24 26 29?
Median is the middle number in a group of numbers. If there more than one middle number, the median is either shown as average of the two numbers in the middle or shown as both the numbers. The median in 23 24 26 29 is 25 or {24;26}.
Do parasites ever have more than one host?
FALSE!
Can you get the same median if you add two more numbers?
yes, depending on what your numbers are, you would need for one to be higher and one lower than your current median, it's always the number in the middle or the average of the 2 middle if it's an even amount of variables.
Is the mean influenced more than the median by a few extreme scores at one end of the distribution?
Yes. The mean uses the actual value of each observation. The value(s) of only the middle observation (or pair of middle observations) is required for the median. For all other observations, the median is concerned only with whether it is larger or smaller than it is.
Have Green Day ever had a number one single?
they've had MORE than one.
A single, extremely large value can affect the median more than the mean?
A single, extremely large value can affect the median more than the mean because One-half of all the data values will fall above the mode, and one-half will fall below the mode. In a data set, the mode will always be unique. The range and midrange are both measures of variation.
