This       ["", "", ""]  displays the distribution of a       ["", "", "", ""]  .  The shape of the distribution is       ["", "", "", ""]  .  Since the distribution is       ["", "", ""]  , the best measure of center would be the       ["", ""]   of       ["", ""]         ["", ""]  .   

This tells us that the typical person in our study       ["", ""]  .  Since the distribution is       ["", "", ""]  , the best measure of spread would be the       ["", ""]   of       ["", ""]  .  This       ["", ""]  can be interpreted to mean that approximately       ["", ""]   in this sample have weekly television viewing times within       ["", ""]  of each other.  This also means that most of people in this sample watch       ["", ""]  of television per week.  There is also       ["", "", ""]   outlier in our sample that watches       ["", "", ""]   hours of television per week.  I think this outlier is       ["", ""]   because it is possible someone watches this much TV.  This information could be important to advertising companies looking to see how much television Americans are watching and to determine the length or amount of commercials to run
