Hello, dear friends: I have come across this question as I study the central tendency (mean, median, mode and range), but I am having difficulty understanding the question. Could anybody give me a lead here?. The only thing I can think of is that the data set given is not arranged from the least to greatest, but I'm still uncertain, because the question asks me to tell if the mean describe the data well???. I do not know if that is what is being asked of me. I want you to confirm if I am drawing the right conclusion here.
Thanks for what you do everyday for people who struggle with math. I can't thank you enough.
Here's the question:
The heights of 5 starting players on the basketball team are 74 in,. 74 in., 73in., 70 and 68 in. Decide whether the mean describes the data well.
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.
