Mean Median Mad

What is the median of the data?

• 200

• 100

• 90

• 140

The double line plot shows the number of students who attended the home games of the baseball team for two recent seasons.  Which of the following statements is NOT true.

• The median attendance for 2009 was less than the median attendance than 2010.

• The attendance for 2010 was more consistent, so the MAD would be smaller than the MAD for 2009.

• The attendance for 2009 was more consistent, so the MAD would be smaller than the MAD for 2010.

• The attendance for 2010 ranged from 20-27.

For which group of data does the mean equal the mode?

• 4, 5, 5, 8

• 4, 4, 6, 6

• 4, 5, 6, 6

• 4, 5, 5, 6

You are given a list of numbers with a median of 10.  Each of the numbers is doubled.  What will happen to the median of the second set of numbers?

• It will increase by one-half

• It will double

• It will stay the same

• Not enough information is given

Here are the times (in minutes) that six students needed to finish a quiz:
10, 14, 15, 15, 14, 10
The Mean Absolute Deviation for this data is 2.
A seventh student took 8 minutes to finish the quiz.  We added his time to our data.  What will happen to the MAD?

• It will decrease because our range is bigger.

• It will increase because our range is bigger.

• It will not change.

• It will decrease because we have more numbers in our data set.

A data set consists of the numbers 2, 2, 5, 6 and 15.  Which statement is true for this data?

• median > mean

• mean = mode

• mode < median

• median = mode

The mode score on the 6th grade math test was 94! Which of these interpretations MUST be correct?

• 94 was the highest score on the test.

• More students received a 94 than any other score

• No student scored below a 94

• A score of 91 was slightly below average.

What is the second step when calculating the Mean Absolute Deviation?

• Find the distance each value is from the mean

• Find the mean of the distances

• Find the mean of the data

What is the third step when calculating the Mean Absolute Deviation?

• Find the distance each value is from the mean

• Find the mean of the distances

• Find the mean of the data
