Answer: Mean = 3.5 , median = 2.5, mode = 2, geometric mean = 2.74
Median is the most appropriate measure of central tendency.
The least appropriate = mean
Yes there is an outlier.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given responses : 5, 4, 2, 1, 1, 2, 10, 2, 3, 5.
First arrange them in increasing order,
Its sum = 35
Mean of n observations = (Sum of observations) ÷ n
Mean = (35) ÷ 10
=3.5
Here n =10 (even)
Median = average of middle most numbers =
Mode = most repeated number = 2 (thrice)
geometric mean =
10 is an outlier as it is very large as compare to other numbers.
When outlier is present in data , the median is the most appropriate measure of central tendency.
Mean affected badly by the outlier so it the least appropriate.
If you're asking for the model for the second problem (I didn't see any unsolved), here it is!
