To find: The way in which center and the spread of a bimodal distribution is described.
Answer to Problem 14HP
The center and the spread of a bimodal distribution is described the cluster individually.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The distributions of the data are not always symmetric or skewed. If there is a gap in the middle of the distribution, there are two types of cluster formed which is shown in the given figure. The data from the two clusters gives bimodal distribution.
There are two clusters in the bimodal distributions in which the overall summary of center and spread gives always and incorrect representation of data.
As both the center and the spread are symmetric, both of its used individually using its mean and standard deviation.
Thus, the center and the spread of a bimodal distribution is described the cluster individually.
