Question

An insurance firm reported that "the typical water-skiing accident occurs near the dock from which they start." Which of the following statistical measurements are they most likely discussing? A. mode B. range C. mean D. median

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. Range

Step-by-step explanation:

In descriptive statistics which analyses the quantitative summary of the statistical data, the range is the region or area or the statistical interval where the data is obtained from and as such the range (in descriptive statistics) gives a guide to the dispersion of the statistical information.

The range is best suited for the representation of the dispersion when the size of the data set is small.
