Answer: A statistical question is one that can be answered by collecting data and where there will be variability in that data. This is different from a question that anticipates a deterministic answer.
Variability (also called spread or dispersion) refers to how spread out a set of data is. Variability gives you a way to describe how much data sets vary and allows you to use statistics to compare your data to other sets of data.
A histogram is a chart that groups data into classes and displays the frequencies for those classes, while a dot plot illustrates each individual observation along a horizontal number line.
The center is the median and/or mean of the data. The spread is the range of the data. And, the shape describes the type of graph.
The average of set of data that is calculated by dividing the sum of the data by the number of items in the set. ... Measures of central tendency are mean, median and mode. Outliers affect the mean value of the data but have little effect on the median or mode of a given set of data.
