Cindy is a first-year math teacher who has just collected a chapter test from her 4th period students. As Cindy reviews the test
scores, she notices that while she has several students who have earned an A, most of the test scores are in the C to B range. She also notices that two of the scores are much lower than the rest, each earning an F. This makes sense to her, as those two students were absent for much of the chapter. However, she must now report to her principal on the performance of her class on this test. Which measure of central tendency should Cindy use in her report to the principal, if she wants to portray her students in the most favorable manner? A.
Cindy should use the mean of the test scores to produce the most positive report.
B.
Cindy should use the median of the test scores to produce the most positive report.
C.
Cindy should use the mode of the test scores to produce the most positive report.
D.
Cindy should use either the mean or the median, as these will produce the same value.
it will be 14 more minuted because she has completed 5/19 minutes it takes to reach the beach.. we can get this answer by taking the total number of minuted to get to the beach (19) and subtract the number of minutes she has already walked (5)..... our answer is that she has 14 minutes left till she reaches the beach.
