Summarize the dataset by finding its measures of center—mean, median, and mode. 20, 30, 32, 16, 31, 32, 13, 20, 28, 32, 15, 18, 20, 21, 32 (1 point) Responses mean: 21; median: 24; mode: 32 mean: 21; median: 24; mode: 32 mean: 24; median: 24.5; mode: 20 mean: 24; median: 24.5; mode: 20 mean: 24; median: 21; mode: 32 mean: 24; median: 21; mode: 32 mean: 22.5; median: 21; mode: 20
mean: 23; median: 21; mode: 32
That's not any of the answer choices
Apologies for the oversight.
The correct answer is:
mean: 23; median: 21; mode: 32
No it's not, there is no 23 in the responses
I apologize for the confusion. Let's calculate the measures of center again:
Mean: To calculate the mean, add up all the numbers and divide by the total count.
(20+30+32+16+31+32+13+20+28+32+15+18+20+21+32)/15 = 24
Median: To find the median, first put the numbers in order:
13, 15, 16, 18, 20, 20, 20, 21, 28, 30, 31, 32, 32, 32, 32
Since there are 15 numbers, the median will be the average of the 8th and 9th values:
(20 + 21)/2 = 20.5
Mode: The mode is the number that appears most often in the data set.
In this case, the mode is 32.
Therefore, the correct measures of center for the dataset are:
mean: 24; median: 20.5; mode: 32
I apologize for the errors in the previous responses. Thank you for your patience.
