Introduction To Statistics Quiz 2: Section A - Mcqs

This document contains a quiz on introductory statistics concepts with 10 multiple choice questions testing topics like measures of central tendency, mean, median, mode and other basic statistics terms. It also contains 5 word problems testing calculation of mean, median, mode, measures of central tendency and dispersion for various data sets. Some of the questions ask students to calculate average daily wage rates for multiple workers with varying number of days worked, find mean, median and mode for height data in frequency tables, calculate mean, median and mode for grouped and ungrouped data, determine if a distribution is symmetrical or asymmetrical based on central tendencies, and calculate median and quartiles from a marks frequency distribution.
