If the data is symmetrical, then the mean is the best measure of central tendency to use, and the standard deviation is the best spread to use.

If the data is asymmetrical, the median is the best measure of central tendency to use, and the inter-quarterly range is the best spread to use.

<h3>What are symmetrical and asymmetrical data?</h3>

A histogram for symmetrical data will give a symmetrical shape, and the mean, median and mode will all be the same value. Therefore, the best measure of the central tendency to use is the mean. The standard deviation shows how far away the values in a given data set are from the mean, and since the mean is used as the measure of central tendency in this case, the standard deviation should be used as the spread.

A histogram for a an asymmetric data set will give an asymmetric shape, and the mean is not always equal to the median. Therefore, the best measure of central tendency to use is the median. The inter-quarterly range shows the range of the middle 50% of a certain data, which is considered from the median value. Since the median is used as the measure of central tendency in this case, it is wise to use the inter-quarterly range as the measure of spread.

<span>The goal in simplifying numbers is to reduce it that can be best seen in the eye.  Also in converting units, you must take note of the units given in the problem. If you don’t, you would get a lot of errors. Length is the measure of distance and can be best represented by either in SI units or English units.  Example of an SI unit is meter, m, and English unit is feet, ft. You are given 3 inches and 2 feet. You can convert any of the numbers into a number that would feel comfortable to you. I will take 3 inches. Note that there are 12 inches in 1 feet. So divide 3 by 12 and you will get ¼ feet. Then divide 2 feet to ¼ feet and you will get 8.</span>

An account is opened with an initial balance of $950 and a simple annual interest rate of 1.6%. What is the balance after 5 year
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
The answer is $1,026.

Solving: Use Simple interest formula, I=Prt.

Make the rate into a decimal (1.6% -> 0.016)

plug in the numbers into the formula. 950 x 0.016 x 5 = 76$.

76$ will be our interest, now to find the balance we would have to add the the starting money (950) with our interest (76$), resulting in our answer of $1,026 after 5 years.
