Below is are the measures of central tendency and dispersion for the number of victims killed in mass killing events. Using the information below, answer the following questions.
Would you say that the data is skewed? Why or why not?
What is the range of for number of victims killing in a mass killing?
At what number of victims does 95% of the distribution cover?
Homework Answers
1) Skewness: Mean is greatre than /mode and median, that shows the distribution is positively skewed.
2) Range = Maximum - Minimum = 32-4 = 28
3) 95% CI
= ( 4.69, 5.27)
95% of the distribution covers 4.60 to 5.27 number of victims.
