Textbook Question
Chapter 10.2, Problem 32E
For Exercises 32-33 determine the shape of the distribution from the histogram and then decide whether the mean or median is a better measure of center. If the mean is the better measure, calculate the value. If the median is the better measure, give the midpoint of the interval that contains it.
Market Capitalization The variable is market capitalization (in billions of dollars) of 20 randomly selected stocks from the S&P 500 on March 7, 2017. (Round to nearest tenth.) (Data from: data.okfn.org.)
Interval | Frequency |
0-19.99 | 8 |
20.00-39.99 | 5 |
40.00-59.99 | 2 |
60.00-79.99 | 2 |
80.00-99.99 | 2 |
