During one month there were 7 days of precipitation. what if there had only been 3 days of precipitation that month? how would that change the measures of center? if necessary, round your answers to the nearest tenth.

Respuesta :

The Mean will decrease while the Median and the Mode will remain with the same amount.

For Central Measures, we have Median, Mode and  Mean. They try to describe the whole distribution by one value, in the center of it.

For this question, let's pick some examples from the Old Faithful, WY Station to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration from 2015, January

1st Case Scenario:

For 7 days of precipitation, (Snow, ice pellets, etc. rain) in inches:

19 19 19 24 23 23 23 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Mean = 5

Median=0 (the sum of the 15th+16th position over 2)

Mode=0 (Most common observations)

2nd Case Scenario

For 3 days of precipitation, (Snow, ice pellets, etc. rain) in inches:

0 0 0 24 0 0 23 0 19 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Mean = 2.2

Median =0

Mode=0
