Answer:
C) The median is the only appropriate measure of center.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data sets:
985, 2, 18, 11, 512, 2, 14, 19, 112, 15
By rearrangement we can determine the mean; the median and the mode; so, we have:
The mean is the summation of all the values divided by the total number of the terms
mean =
mean =
mean = 169
The median is the middle number is =
=
= 16.5
The mode is the highest occurring frequency which is = 2
mean> median = 169 > 16.5
For Skewed distribution;
Since the mean is greater than the median ; the best measure of center(measure of central tendency) = median.
