The video tutorial covers measures of spread, including range, variation, and standard deviation. It explains how these measures indicate data distribution and provides examples to illustrate the concepts. The tutorial also discusses visual data representation using dot plots, histograms, and box plots, and explores different distribution shapes such as symmetrical, skewed, and bimodal.

What is the range of a data set?

• The sum of all values in the set

• The middle value of the set

• The difference between the highest and lowest values

• The average of all values in the set

Which of the following best describes standard deviation?

• The lowest value in a data set

• The highest value in a data set

• A measure of how spread out the values in a data set are

• A measure of the center of a data set

In comparing two data sets with the same mean, what indicates a greater spread?

• A higher mode

• A higher median

• A higher range

• A higher standard deviation

How are standard deviation and variation related?

• They are directly related

• They are not related

• They are inversely related

• They are the same

What is a dot plot used for?

• To show the range of a data set

• To find the median of a data set

• To represent frequencies of data values

• To calculate the mean of a data set

In a box and whisker plot, what does the box represent?

• The mode of the data set

• The mean of the data set

• The interquartile range

• The range of the data set

What is a characteristic of a right-skewed distribution?

• The mean is less than the median

• The mean is greater than the median

• The median is greater than the mode

• The mode is greater than the mean
