1. Here is a chart of the National Parks in the United States. Find the Mean, Median, Mode and Mid-Range of this data. Show your work. If you use a calculator explain the steps you took. If you use excel, submit your spreadsheet.
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.

2. Pick one of the four "measure of average" and explain a situation which would cause
it to NOT be a good choice for indicating the average. (mean, median, mode, mid-
range)

The data of National Parks in United States is given.
Mean is sum of observations divided by number of observations. The median is the middlemost value of the observations, mode is the number which is repeated maximum number of times and mid-range is average of value of maximum observation and minimum observation from the data set.
