Yes- the highest probability value is the mode. Let me clarify this answer:
For a probability mass function for a discrete variables, the mode is the value with the highest probability as shown on the y axis. For a probability density function for continuous variables, the mode is the value with the highest probability density as shown on the y-axis.
In a symmetric distribution, the mean, median, and mode are all equal or located at the same central point. This characteristic ensures that the distribution is balanced on either side, with half of the data points falling below the central value and half above it. Therefore, in a perfectly symmetric distribution, such as a normal distribution, these three measures of central tendency coincide.
In a symmetric distribution, the mean and median will always be equal. This is because symmetry implies that the distribution is balanced around a central point, which is where both the mean (the average) and the median (the middle value) will fall. Therefore, in perfectly symmetric distributions like the normal distribution, the mean, median, and mode coincide at the center. In practice, they may be approximately equal in symmetric distributions that are not perfectly symmetrical due to rounding or sampling variability.
The mode of the Pareto distribution is its lowest value.
The mode is the most probable value. Often, you determine the mode by plotting the experimental probability distribution, and finding the peak value. The mode is not necessarily the same as the mean nor the median, unless the distribution is symmetrical.
When data has the same frequency and the same distribution, it means that the data points are evenly spread across their range, resulting in a uniform pattern. A symmetric distribution indicates that the data is balanced around a central point, such as the mean, with equal amounts of data on either side. Common examples of symmetric distributions include the normal distribution and the uniform distribution. In such cases, the measures of central tendency (mean, median, and mode) will coincide.
Yes, the uniform probability distribution is symmetric about the mode. Draw the sketch of the uniform probability distribution. If we say that the distribution is uniform, then we obtain the same constant for the continuous variable. * * * * * The uniform probability distribution is one in which the probability is the same throughout its domain, as stated above. By definition, then, there can be no value (or sub-domain) for which the probability is greater than elsewhere. In other words, a uniform probability distribution has no mode. The mode does not exist. The distribution cannot, therefore, be symmetric about something that does not exist.
In a symmetric distribution, the mean, median, and mode are all equal or located at the same central point. This characteristic ensures that the distribution is balanced on either side, with half of the data points falling below the central value and half above it. Therefore, in a perfectly symmetric distribution, such as a normal distribution, these three measures of central tendency coincide.
Mean
All equal.
In a symmetric distribution, the mean and the median are the same. Otherwise there is no relation. In symmetric distributions with only one mode, the mode will coincide with the mean and median, but otherwise there is no relation.
They are all equal . . . they are the same.(In an asymmetric distribution they are not equal.)
They are all the same.
In a symmetric distribution, the mean and median will always be equal. This is because symmetry implies that the distribution is balanced around a central point, which is where both the mean (the average) and the median (the middle value) will fall. Therefore, in perfectly symmetric distributions like the normal distribution, the mean, median, and mode coincide at the center. In practice, they may be approximately equal in symmetric distributions that are not perfectly symmetrical due to rounding or sampling variability.

Not necessarily.
The coefficient of skewness is a measure of asymmetry in a statistical distribution. It indicates whether the data is skewed to the left, right, or is symmetric. The formula for calculating the coefficient of skewness is [(Mean - Mode) / Standard Deviation]. A positive value indicates right skew, a negative value indicates left skew, and a value of zero indicates a symmetric distribution.
The mode of the Pareto distribution is its lowest value.
