median =

The mode is the value that occurs with the highest frequency in a data set.

One advantage of the mode is that it can be calculated

The .............. is a better measure when a data set includes outliers.

The mean is the most-used measure of central tendency, followed by the median

the mean, median, and mode are identical, and they lie at the center of the distribution.

The measures of central tendency, such as the mean, median, and mode, donot reveal the whole picture of the distribution of a data set

The mean, median, or mode by itself is usually a sufficient measure to reveal the shape of the distribution of a data set.

The measures that help us learn about the spread of a data set are called the measures of .......

The range is the simplest measure of dispersion to calculate

Range =

The range, like the mean, has the disadvantage of being sensitive to outliers.

Another disadvantage of using the range is that its calculation is based on ......... values only

Thus, the range is a very satisfactory measure of dispersion

the most common measures of variability describe the extent to which the sample observations deviate from the sample mean 𝑥᪄.

A particular deviation is .......... if the corresponding 𝑥 value is greater than 𝑥شرطه and ............. if the 𝑥 value is less than 𝑥شرطه᪄.

The greater the amount of variability in the sample, the larger themagnitudes (ignoring the signs) of the deviations

The standard deviation is the most-used measure of dispersion

The value of the standard deviation tells how closely the values of a data set are clustered around the median.

The standard deviation is obtained by taking the negative square root of the variance
