Question

The mean of a data set is informative (compared to the median and mode) if the data is not skewed Select one: True False

Answer 1

False.

Explanation:

The mean of a data set is informative even if the data is skewed. However, the mean may not be the best measure of central tendency to use if the data is skewed, as the mean is sensitive to outliers and extreme values. In such cases, the median or mode may be more appropriate measures of central tendency.
