x = 19
6. _____ What must be the value of “x” in ; 13,17, 18, x , 23, 27 so that the median is 19?

UNIMODAL?
Consider the scores of 2 sets of students:
RANGE :
- the difference between the highest and the lowest values
in the given set of data.
- measure that requires simplest computation
- HIGHEST - LOWEST
R = 11.1
3. 8.5, 6.2, 12, 4.2, 14, 9.1, 15.3
4.
RANGE:
Upper boundary (uppermost class interval)
- Lower boundary (lowermost class interval)
R = 65.5 - 40.5 = 25
5. R = 186.5 - 158.5 = 28
N = 10 S = 3.66
Mean = 17
Formula for VARIANCE

VARIANCE = ( standard deviation )2
If the standard deviation of the given data is 9.8, what is the variance ?

If the Variance of the given data is 22.09, what is the standard deviation?
S =
