Measures of central tendency are averages. Range , the difference between the maximum and the minimum, is a measure of dispersion or variation.
If the distribution is positively skewed distribution, the mean will always be the highest estimate of central tendency and the mode will always be the lowest estimate of central tendency. This is true if we assume the distribution has a single mode.
Yes. Central tendency is the way data clusters around a value. Even if the distribution of the value is skewed, the median would be the best indicator of central tendency because of the way the data is clustered.
The outlier 57 affects the measure of central tendency by increasing the numbers and making the problems difficult.
The measure of variability tells you how close to the central value the data values lie: that is whether the cluster is tightly packed around the central value of spread out over a large range of values.
Benefits of Central Tendency
easures of central tendency
Central tendency is important because it is used to calculate an average on a collection of data. Central Tendency includes the mean, median, and mode.
"Central tendency" is a phrase comprising TWO words, it is not a word. Central tendency refers to the tendency of some data sets to collect around their middle value.
it depends on what is being measured
One of the measures of central tendency IS the average, also known as mean. You can't calculate the average from other measures of central tendency.
"What are the benefits of measures of central tendency? Explain with an example
average is defined as a single value which has tendency to represent the data as a whole. averages are also called "measure of central tendency" or "measure of location"
One advantage to using central tendency is the fact that is represents all data. A disadvantage to using central tendency is the fact that extremes can skew the data.
"Measures of central tendency are statistical measures." is an accurate statement.
Measures of central tendency are the mean, median, range, mode ect.
The average or mean is one measure of central tendency. There are several.
