A population has m = 50. What value of s would make X = 55 a central, representative score in the population?

2 answers

Assuming a normal distribution, if the mean (m) = 50, no value of standard deviation (s) would make 55 a measure of central tendency.

If the distribution is skewed, s has no definite meaning. However, the mode or median could be 55.
s=20
