What is the MEAN? How do we find it? The mean is the numerical average of the data set. The mean is found by adding all the values in the set, then.

Measures of Variation

Median, Quartiles, Inter-Quartile Range and Box Plots. Measures of Spread Remember: The range is the measure of spread that goes with the mean. Mean = = = 7 Range = 12 – 2 = 10 Example 1. Two dice were thrown 10 times and their scores were added together and recorded. Find the mean and range for this data. 7, 5, 2, 7, 6, 12, 10, 4, 8, 9

Median, Quartiles, Inter-Quartile Range and Box Plots. Measures of Spread The range is not a good measure of spread because one extreme, (very high or very low value can have a big effect) The measure of spread that goes with the median is called the inter-quartile range and is generally a better measure of spread because it is not affected by extreme values. A reminder about the median

Single middle value Averages (The Median) The median is the middle value of a set of data once the data has been ordered. Example 1. Robert hit 11 balls at Grimsby driving range. The recorded distances of his drives, measured in yards, are given below. Find the median distance for his drives. 85, 125, 130, 65, 100, 70, 75, 50, 140, 95, 70 Median drive = 85 yards 50, 65, 70, 70, 75, 85, 95, 100, 125, 130, 140 Ordered data

Two middle values so take the mean. Averages (The Median) The median is the middle value of a set of data once the data has been ordered. Example 1. Robert hit 12 balls at Grimsby driving range. The recorded distances of his drives, measured in yards, are given below. Find the median distance for his drives. 85, 125, 130, 65, 100, 70, 75, 50, 140, 135, 95, 70 Median drive = 90 yards 50, 65, 70, 70, 75, 85, 95, 100, 125, 130, 135, 140 Ordered data

Finding the median, quartiles and inter-quartile range. 12, 6, 4, 9, 8, 4, 9, 8, 5, 9, 8, 10 4, 4, 5, 6, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 12 Order the data Inter- Quartile Range = 9 - 5½ = 3½ Example 1: Find the median and quartiles for the data below. Lower Quartile = 5½ Q1Q1 Upper Quartile = 9 Q3Q3 Median = 8 Q2Q2

Upper Quartile = 10 Q3Q3 Lower Quartile = 4 Q1Q1 Median = 8 Q2Q2 3, 4, 4, 6, 8, 8, 8, 9, 10, 10, 15, Finding the median, quartiles and inter-quartile range. 6, 3, 9, 8, 4, 10, 8, 4, 15, 8, 10 Order the data Inter- Quartile Range = = 6 Example 2: Find the median and quartiles for the data below.

2, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10, 15 Median = 8 hours and the inter-quartile range = 9 – 6 = 3 hours. Battery Life: The life of 12 batteries recorded in hours is: 2, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10, 15 Mean = 93/12 = 7.75 hours and the range = 15 – 2 = 13 hours. Discuss the calculations below. The averages are similar but the measures of spread are significantly different since the extreme values of 2 and 15 are not included in the inter-quartile range.
