Examples:
1. Dataset: A dataset containing information on the average income of households in different states.
2. Gap: In a dataset of students' test scores, there is a gap between the scores of 85 and 90, with no scores falling in that range.
3. Outlier: In a dataset of ages of students in a class, a student who is 30 years older than the rest of the students would be considered an outlier.
4. Center: The median income of a population is often used to represent the center of their income distribution.
5. Mean: The mean of a dataset of test scores is calculated by adding up all the scores and dividing by the total number of scores.
6. Median: In a dataset of numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, the median would be 3.
7. Skewed: A dataset of household incomes may be skewed to the right if there are more households with higher incomes than lower incomes.
8. Spread: The spread of a dataset of children's ages may range from 1 to 15 years old.
9. Symmetrical: A dataset of 100 numbers that are arranged symmetrically would have 50 numbers on the left side and 50 numbers on the right side.
give me examples for all of them
dataset – a collection of related data, or information
gap – a space between data points where there are no observations
outlier – a data point that is significantly different than all of the other data points
center – the typical value of a dataset, such as the median or the mean
mean – the sum of the data divided by the number of data values
median – the middle value of a set of data when ordered from least to greatest
skewed – having the majority of data on the right or the left of a graph
spread – the range of a dataset
symmetrical – the same on both sides if cut or folded in half
