10) Which of the following statements is true?
A) The mean is always one of the data points in a set of data.
B) The mode is always one of the data points in a set of data.
C) The median is always one of the data points in a set of data
D) None of the above is true
We use the concepts of mean, median, and mode to solve the problem.
(i) True: Mode is the observations that occur highest numbers of times. Therefore, it is one observation in a data.
(ii) False: Mean may or may not be one of the numbers present in a data. It can also be a number which is not a part of the given observations.
(iii) True: Median is the middle observations of the given data when it is arranged in ascending or descending order.
(iv) False: The given data 6, 4, 3, 8, 9, 12, 13, 9.
Mean = Sum of all the observations / 8
= 6 + 4 + 3 + 8 + 9 + 12 + 13 + 9 / 8
= 64 / 8
= 8

10) Which of the following statements is always true? a). Half of the data is at or above the median value and half of the data is at or below the median value. b).

Which one of the following is always true? Select one: a. The coefficient of variation is a measure of relative dispersion that expresses the standard deviation as a percentage of the mean, for any data on a ratio scale and an interval scale. b. The coefficient of variation measures variability in a positively skewed data set relative to the size of the median. c. The interquartile range is very unique in the sense that it is a measure of central...
