Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider a sample with data values of 10, 20, 12, 17, and 16. (a) Compute the mean and median. Mean = Median = (b) Consider a sample with data values 10, 20, 12, 17, 16, and 12.
Mean = Total of values/ Total number of observations
Total of values = 10+20+12+17+16 = 75
Total number of observations = 5
Mean = 75/5 = 15
Median:
Arrange in ascending order = 10, 12,16,17,20
Median = [n+1] / 2
N = number of observation = 5
Median = [5+1]/2 = 3rd observation
Median = 16
