What are the two main types of misleading graphs and statistics discussed in the lesson?

• Graphs with different intervals and statistics using non-representative measures of center

• Graphs with identical scales and statistics using the median

• Graphs with consistent intervals and statistics using the mode

• Graphs with uniform data and statistics using the range

In the Stanley Cup graph example, why is Messier's performance misleadingly represented?

• The graph uses a logarithmic scale

• Messier's points are shown as less than Curry's

• The graph omits Curry's data entirely

• Messier's image is twice the size of Curry's, exaggerating the difference

How does the Spring Dance ticket price graph demonstrate misleading graph techniques?

What is the main issue with the line graph showing business profitability?

• It uses a consistent interval throughout

• It uses a logarithmic scale

• It omits data from certain months

Why is the amusement park's claim about roller coaster heights misleading?

• The park uses a pie chart to display heights

• All coasters are exactly the same height

• The median height is used instead of the mean

• The mean height is skewed by one very tall coaster

Which measure of center would be more appropriate for the roller coaster heights?

• Range

• Mode

• Mean

• Median

What is the effect of using a very low-priced sofa in calculating the mean price?

• It decreases the mean price

• It makes the mean equal to the median

• It increases the mean price

• It has no effect on the mean price

Which measure of center is most affected by outliers?

• Mode

• Range

• Median

• Mean

Why might a sofa store advertise the mean price instead of the median?

• The mean is higher than the median

• The mean is lower than the median

• The mean is the same as the median

• The mean is not affected by outliers
