Over the first five years of owning her car, Gina drove about 12,200 miles the first year, 16,211 miles the second year, 12,050 the third year, 11,350 the fourth year, and 13,325 the fifth year. a. Find the mean, median, and mode of this data. b. Explain which measure of central tendency will best predict how many miles Gina will drive in the sixth year.


mean = 13,027; median = 12,200; mode = 4,861; the median is the best choice because it is not skewed by the high outlier.

mean = 13,027; median = 12,200; no mode; the median is the best choice because it is not skewed by the high outlier.

mean = 12,200; median = 13,027; no mode; the mean is the best choice because it is representative of the entire data set.

mean = 13,027; median = 12,200; no mode; the mean is the best choice because it is representative of the entire data set.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is: the last option

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the mean

      (12200 + 16211 + 12050 + 11350 + 13325) / 5 = 65136/5 = 13027

median

     11350   12050   12200   13325      16211  

mode   no mode

Options

a)  This option is wrong because there is no mode and this option is suggesting one.

b) This option is wrong because median is not the best option

c) This option is wrong because the values of mean and median are interchanged

d) This is the correct option because mean, median and mode are correct and also it mentions that the mean is the best option.
