Topics in Connecting the Dots
1. Statistical Questions and Statistical Statements
- A statistical question can be answered by collecting data.
- A statistical statement is a claim or summary expressed using numerical values, proportions, probabilities, or predictions.
- Not every question has one fixed answer; some questions need data because values can vary.
2. Average and Arithmetic Mean
- Average is a representative number found by adding values and dividing by the number of values.
- Average is also called arithmetic mean or mean.
- Mean helps compare groups fairly when totals alone are not enough.
3. Mean in Data with Even Count and with Missing Values
- When the number of values is even, the median is found by taking the average of the two middle numbers.
- A match not played, marked as —, is excluded from the count of matches.
- A score of 0 is counted because the match was played.
4. Median, Outliers, and Why Median Can Be Better
- An outlier is a value that significantly deviates from the rest of the data.
- Outliers can pull the mean away from the centre of the data.
- The median is often a better representative value when data has an outlier.
