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.
What else can I help you with?
Why is the median a more stable measure of central tendency than the mean?
in general,mean is more stable than median but in the case of extreme values it is better to consider median a stable measure than mean.
The point of intersection of the less than and more than ogive corresponds to 1.geometric mean 2.mode 3. median 4.none of the above?
median
Can the mean be smaller than the median for a set of data?
Yes. If the lower values tend to be farther below the median than the highest values are above the median, the mean is smaller than the median. why are write wrong
Which is larger the mean or the median?
Either one can be larger (or smaller) than the other.
When skewed right is the mean greater than median?
When a distribution is skewed to the right, the mean is greater than median.
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.
Why is the median a more stable measure of central tendency than the mean?
in general,mean is more stable than median but in the case of extreme values it is better to consider median a stable measure than mean.
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
When is the median more useful than the mean?
When the distribution has outliers. They will skew the mean but will not affect the median.
Why do we study the median?
The median is a more robust measure than the average, which means it is more resilient to the effects of outliers in your dataset.
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.
In 2013 the median family income for whites was how much more than that of Latinos.?
In 2013, the median family income for white families was about $28,000 more than that of Latino families.
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}.
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.
What does the point of intersection of less than ogive and more than ogive correspond to?
the intersection of less and more than ogive gives us the median of the following data.. but the median is not accurate as we draw the free hand cumulative graph..
The point of intersection of the less than and more than ogive corresponds to 1.geometric mean 2.mode 3. median 4.none of the above?
median
