Advantages and disadvantages of mean, median and mode​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tpy6a [65]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Mean = Sum of all values / number of values.

Mean is usually known as the best measure of central tendency because it takes all values into account. However, it is easily affected by any extreme value or outlier. The Mean can only be defined on interval and ratio level of measurement . In simpler terms: "The "mean" is the "average" you're used to, where you add up all the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers."

Median is the mid point of data when it is arranged in order. It is typically when the data set has extreme values or is skewed in some direction. The median is defined on ordinal, interval and ratio level of measurement . In simpler terms: "The "median" is the "middle" value in the list of numbers. "

Mode is the most frequently occurring point in data. It is best for nominal data set in which both median and mode are undefined. The mode is defined on nominal, ordinal, interval and ratio level of measurement. In simpler terms: "The "mode" is the value that occurs most often. If no number in the list is repeated, then there is no mode for the list."

Hope this helps!

What is the slope of a line that passes through the points (-2,3) and (4,-12)
posledela

Answer:

m = -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for slope with the following equation:

<em>m </em>(slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Let:

(4 , -12) = (x₁ , y₁)

(-2 , 3) = (x₂ , y₂)

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

<em>m </em>= (3 - (-12))/(-2 - 4)

<em>m</em> = (3 + 12)/(-2 - 4)

<em>m </em>= (15)/(-6)

Simplify the slope:

<em>m</em> = -(15/6) = -5/2

-5/2 is your slope.

A jar contains 4 red marbles, 4 green marbles, and 5 blue marbles.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

20/156 or 5/39

Step-by-step explanation:

the first part of the equation will be:

5/13 (5 is how many blue and 13 is altogether)

the next part of this equation is the green marble. Because we didn't put the blue marble back, the next part of the equation will be:

4/12 (4 is how many green and 12 is altogether now that one blue was taken out)

and from there, you multiply 5/13 with 4/12, with will give you 20/156, or 5/39 if you simplify.
