Question

the frequency polygon to the right shows a distribution of iq scores. determine if the following statement is true or false according to the graph. the iq score that more people had than any other iq score, and which the scores fall off in a symmetrical manner as the deviation increases or decreases from it, is the iq score of 95. is the statement true or false? false true

Explanation:

The IQ score that more people had than any other IQ score is the mode. In a frequency polygon, the mode is the value at the peak of the graph. Looking at the "Distribution of IQ Scores" graph, the peak is at 115, not 95. Also, for a symmetrical distribution (if it were truly symmetrical around a certain value), the peak (mode) should be the center of symmetry. But here, the statement wrongly identifies 95 as that score.

Answer:

False
