The following data shows how many The mean is 6 and the median is 7. coins each student found. Teacher Notes The mean tells us that if the data 10, 7, 3, 8, 2 were evenly distributed, each student would have 6 coins. Find the mean and median of the data. What does the mean and median tell us about the data? The median tells us that half the class has more than 7 coins and the other half has less than 7. 40

Which Measure of Center to Use? Sherman and his friends had a paper competition. The distances each plane traveled were 13 ft, 2 ft, 19 ft, 18 ft and 16 ft. Should Sherman use the mean, median or mode to describe their results? Find the mean, median and mode and compare them. 48
Which Measure of Center to Use? 13 ft, 2 ft, 19 ft, 18 ft and 16 ft 13.6 ft Mean: Click for answer 16 ft Median: Click for answer Mode: no mode Click for answer Which measure of center best describes the data? The median is closest to most of the Click for answer values, so it best describes the data. The mean is less than 3 out of the 5 values, and there was no mode. 49

Quartiles There are three quartiles for every set of data. Lower Upper Half Half 10, 14, 17, 18, 21, 25, 27, 28 Q1 Q3 Q2 The lower quartile (Q1) is the median of the lower half of the data which is 15.5.

Outliers Practice Outliers Numbers that are relatively much larger or much smaller than the data. Which of the following data sets have outlier(s)? Answer A & B A. 1, 13, 18, 22, 25 B. 17, 52, 63, 74, 79, 83, 120 C. 13, 15, 17, 21, 26, 29, 31 D. 25, 32, 35, 39, 40, 41 85
Outliers Practice When the outlier is not obvious, a general rule of thumb is that the outlier falls more than 1.5 times the interquartile range below Q1 or Q1: 3 above Q3. Q2: 6 Consider the set 1, 5, 6, 9, 17. Q3: 13 IQR: 10 Q1: 3 Answer 1.5 x IQR = 1.5 x 10 = 15 Q2: 6 Q3: 13 Q1 15 = 3 15 = 12 IQR: 10 Q3 + 15 = 13 + 15 = 28 In order to be an outlier, a number 1.5 x IQR = 1.5 x 10 = 15 should be smaller than 12 or larger than 28. Q1 15 = 3 15 = 12 Q3 + 15 = 13 + 15 = 28 In order to be an outlier, a number should be smaller than 12 or larger than 28. 86
