What is a peak in a data graph?

Back

A peak in a data graph is the highest point in the distribution, representing the mode or the most frequently occurring value.

What is a cluster in data distribution?

Back

A cluster in data distribution refers to a group of data points that are close together, indicating a concentration of values in that range.

What does it mean for data to be symmetrical?

Back

Data is symmetrical when the left and right sides of the distribution are mirror images of each other, indicating that values are evenly distributed around a central point.
