What is a peak in a graph?

Back

A peak in a graph is the highest point, indicating the most frequent value or mode in the dataset.

Front

What does it mean if data is symmetrical?

Back

Symmetrical data is evenly distributed around a central point, meaning the left and right sides of the graph are mirror images.

Front

What is a cluster in data?

Back

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

Front

What does skewed left mean?

Back

Skewed left means that the tail on the left side of the distribution is longer or fatter than the right side, indicating that most values are higher.

Front

What does skewed right mean?

Back

Skewed right means that the tail on the right side of the distribution is longer or fatter than the left side, indicating that most values are lower.

Front

What is a mode in a dataset?

Back

The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a dataset.

Front

What is the spread of data?

Back

The spread of data refers to the range or variability of values in a dataset, indicating how much the values differ from each other.

Front

What is a bell curve?

Back

A bell curve is a graphical representation of a normal distribution, where most values cluster around the mean, creating a bell-shaped curve.

Front

What is a gap in data?

Back

A gap in data is a space or absence of values in a dataset, indicating that no data points fall within that range.
