QUESTION 6 A researcher is measuring problem-solving times for a sample of n 20 children. However, one of the children fails to solve the problem so the researcher has an undetermined score. What is the best measure of central tendency for these data? O a. the mean O b. the median OC. the mode Od. Central tendency cannot be determined for these data QUESTION 7 For a particular sample, the largest distance (deviation) between a score and the mean is 11 points. The smallest distance between a score and the mean is 4 points. Therefore, the standard deviation O a. is probably greater than 11 Ob.is probably between 4 and 11 Oc is probably less than 4 Od. It is impossible to say anything about the standard deviation

QUESTION 6
A researcher is measuring problem-solving times for a sample of n= 20 children. However, one of the children fails to solve the
problem so the researcher has an undetermined score. What is the best measure of central tendency for these data?
%3D
O a. the mean
O b. the median
O C. the mode
Od. Central tendency cannot be determined for these data
QUESTION 7
For a particular sample, the largest distance (deviation) between a score and the mean is 11 points, The smallest distance
between a score and the mean is 4 points. Therefore, the standard deviation
O a. is probably greater than 11
Ob.is probably between 4 and 11
Ocis probably less than 4
O d. It is impossible to say anything about the standard deviation
