Determine whether each statement is true or false.
___________ 1. A set of data has just one mean and just one median, but it can has e more than one mode. [7.3b, c, d]
To check: Whether the statement “A set of data has just one mean and just one median, but it can have more than one mode” is true or false.
Answer to Problem 1MC
The statement “A set of data has just one mean and just one median, but it can have more than one mode” is True.
Explanation of Solution
Mode: The mode of a set of data is the number or numbers that occur most often. If each number occurs the same number of times, there is no mode.
It is known that mean is the average of all the given numbers whereas the median is the middle number of the data.
So, there will be only one mean and median for the given data.
From the definition of mode, it is noted that there can be more than one mode for a given set of data.
Therefore, the given statement is True.
