Measures of Central Tendency: Midrange
 The midrange is the average of the lowest and highest values
in a data set.

Bluman, Chapter 3
Properties of the Mean
 Uses all data values.
 Varies less than the median or mode
 Used in computing other statistics, such as the variance
 Unique, usually not one of the data values
 Cannot be used with open-ended classes
 Affected by extremely high or low values, called outliers
Properties of the Median
 Gives the midpoint
 Used when it is necessary to find out whether the data values
fall into the upper half or lower half of the distribution.
 Can be used for an open-ended distribution.
 Affected less than the mean by extremely high or extremely
low values.
Properties of the Mode
 Used when the most typical case is desired
 Easiest average to compute
 Can be used with nominal data
 Not always unique or may not exist

 Easy to Measure and Compute
 It Emphasizes only the extreme values so it gives a
very distorted picture
Definition
The range of a set of data values is the difference
between the maximum data value and the minimum
data value.

Range = (maximum value) – (minimum value)

It is very sensitive to extreme values; therefore, it is


not as useful as other measures of variation.
Range
 Find the Range for the given data
 Data Set: 25, 30, 40, 45
 Range = Max – Min = 45 – 25 = 20
Definition
The standard deviation of a set of
sample values, denoted by s, is a
measure of how much data values
deviate away from the mean.
Standard Deviation
 It is the most frequently used measure of dispersion
 It is a computed measure whose value is affected by every
value
 Its value may be distorted by extreme values
 It can not be computed from an open-ended distribution
