Module #3: Data Set Analysis
Data Set Analysis
Set #1: 10, 2, 3, 2, 4, 2, 5
Set #2: 20, 12, 13, 12, 14, 12, 15
1) Central Tendency:
Mean :
Set #1: (10 + 2 + 3 + 2 + 4 + 2 + 5) / 7 = 28 / 7 ≈ 4
Set #2: (20 + 12 + 13 + 12 + 14 + 12 + 15) / 7 = 98 / 7 ≈ 14
Median:
Set #1: Median = 3
Set #2: Median = 14
Mode:
Set #1: Mode = 2
Set #2: Mode = 12
2) Variation:
Range:
Set #1: Range = 8
Set #2: Range = 8
Interquartile Range (IQR):
Set #1: IQR = Q3 - Q1
Set #2: IQR = Q3 - Q1
Variance:
Set #1: Variance = ~6.33
Set #2: Variance = ~9.33
Standard Deviation:
Set #1: Standard Deviation = ~2.52
Set #2: Standard Deviation = ~3.06
Comparison of Central Tendency:
Comparing Set #1 and Set #2, the mean, median, and mode values in Set #2 are typically higher. This shows that the average value in Set #2 is greater.
Variation:
Given that the range is the same for both sets, the spread of data from minimum to maximum is also identical.
The interquartile range (IQR) of Set #2 is bigger than that of Set #1, indicating that Set #2's center 50% of the data is more dispersed than in Set #1.
Compared to Set #1, Set #2 likewise has a higher variance and standard deviation, indicating that the data are more variable.
