Explain when the median of a data set is a better
measure of center than the mean.

The median of a data set is better when you have a term or terms that are not close to the other terms

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

Say you have the data set

1, 15, 17, 18, 22, 84

The median of these terms would be 17.5

       (it is the exact center of the data group)

17 + 18 = 35

35/2 = 17.5

The mean of these terms would be 26.17  

    (this number is not close to the center because the numbers 1 and 84

      are not close enough to the other terms)

1 + 15 + 17 + 18 + 22 + 84 = 157

157/6 = 26.17

Sample Response: When there is an outlier in the data set, the dot plot or histogram will be skewed. In a skewed representation, the mean is pulled up or down toward the tail of the data. Therefore, skewed data affects the mean more than the median.

What did you include in your response? Check all that apply.

The dot plot or histogram will be skewed.

The mean is pulled up or down toward the tail.

The mean is affected more than the median.

step-by-step explanation:

no

step-by-step explanation:

2-7=-5

7-2=5

when you combing like terms for ech expression, 5 and -5. these numbers are not equal to each other.
