5. Finding range is helpful but it does not tell us how spread out the data is between the minimum and Value Distance from mean (Distance from mean) maximum. How can we find the average distance of the values from the mean? a. Complete the table. b. The average you calculated is the average of the squared distances from the mean. How do we use this to find the average distance from the mean? Find it. 5. Use technology to enter the classroom data and find the summary statistics. Verify our work. How does it compare? 6. We forgot to add the student that applied to 40 colleges! Add this to the data set. Calculate the new mean, median and standard deviation using technology. How does it compare to the original measures? Why do you think this is? New mean: New median: New standard deviation: Total: Average (Distance from mean): Key Takeaway
