CHAPTER 7 : STATISTICS

7.1 MEASURES OF CENTRAL TENDENCY
(i) Ungrouped data data that is not grouped into classes
(ii) Grouped data - data that is grouped in certain classes

7.1.1 Calculating the mean of ungrouped data

Example 1:

Find the mean of 58, 67, 45, 73 and 77





Example 2:

Number 1 2 3 4 5
Frequency 5 8 4 6 2

Find the mean of the number.






7.1.2 Determining mode of ungrouped data

Mode is the value which appears the most number of times in a set of data (value that has the
highest frequency)

Example 1: Determine the mode for the following sets of number.

(a) 2, 5, 6, 2, 6, 7, 2, 4, 8, 2 Answer: ..

(b) 5, 5, 8, 10, 4, 4 Answer: ..

(c) 2, 2, 3, 4, 4 , 4, 6, 6 Answer: ..

Note: It is possible that a set of data either has more than one mode or has no mode.


Where
x - mean of the set data.

Answer: ..


7.1.3 Determining the median of ungrouped data

When the values in set of data are arranged in either ascending or descending order, the value that
lies in the middle is the median.

Example 1: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

B. If there are extreme values in the set of data

Range
Extreme values in a set of data will significantly increase the range of the set of data.

Interquartile range
Extreme values in a set of data will have little or no effect on the interquartile range.

Variance and Standard Deviation
Extreme values also significantly increase the value of standard deviation and variance but
standard deviation is affected to a smaller degree as compare to variance.


C. If certain values are added or removed

When a value is added or removed from a set of data, the effect on the measures of dispersion is
uncertain. In general, the range and the interquartile range are less affected as compared to the
variance and the standard deviation. Variance and standard deviation are more significantly
affected when the added or removed value has a greater difference from the mean.

Activity:

(a) The interquartile range and the standard deviation of a set of data are 5 and 2.5. Find the new
interquartile range and standard deviation if every value of the data is divided by 2 followed
