Measures of Central Tendency
a measure of the balance of an ordered data set
the most common measures of central tendency are mean, median, and mode.

Arithmetic Mean or Mean
the sum of a set of values divided by the number of values; you may know this as the “average”
Real Life Applications:
a teacher uses the mean to calculate the class average on a test
a weather reporter uses the mean to calculate the average temperature in a month

ExampleCalculate the mean of the following set of data:
5, 6, 8, 3, 4, 6, 9, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9
Hint: Cross off numbers as you do the calculations and double check to ensure
you have all numbers included

ExampleA grade 12 class with 15 students was polled to determine
the number of television sets they had in their homes. These are the results:
3, 4, 1, 3, 2, 2, 1, 1, 4, 5, 8, 3, 2, 7, 4
What is the mean of this set of data?

Challenge YourselfMs. James compiled a list of her classes test scores.
The mean test score is 23 out of 50. Calculate the unknown score:
Step 1: Add up all of the numbers that you can
Step 2: Use your knowledge of variables to solve for “x”
Step 3: Check your work by plugging your value into the data set to ensure the statement is true.

Median
the midpoint of an ordered data set; half the values are higher and half are lower
if there is an odd number of values in the list, the middle value is the median; if there is an even number of values, then the arithmetic mean of the two middle values is the median

Median
Real Life Applications:
the median is referred to when sales of houses are reported; the median selling price in a city tells you that half the houses sold at a higher price and half at a lower price
the median is often used to report typical wages paid to employees

ExampleFind the median of this set of numbers:
5, 6, 8, 3, 4, 6, 9, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9
First, you must organize them from least to greatest:

the number of television sets they had in their homes. These are the results:
3, 2, 7, 6, 2, 1, 3, 2, 4, 1
What is the median of this set of data?
![Page 14: Statistics Part #1 - WordPress.com€¦ · 01/09/2019 · mean, median, and mode. Arithmetic Mean or Mean the sum of a set of values divided by the number of values; you may know](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022063015/5fd3c5e281da9d2d0558f372/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mode
in a list of values, the value that occurs the most often is called the mode.
If each value occurs only once, there is no mode
If two or more values appear the same number of times and it is the greatest number of occurrences in the data set, then they are all considered the modes.
two modes = bimodal; three modes = trimodal; etc.

ModeReal Life Applications:
if you are a shoe manufacturer and you know more women wear size 7 shoes than any other size, you may use the mode to set your production run
if you manage a building supply store and your customers buy more 2” by 4” pieces of dimensional lumber than any other size, you will order your stock accordingly
