Question
the defines measurements of position. standard deviation quartile mode mean one attempt
Brief Explanations
- Standard deviation measures the dispersion or spread of data values around the mean. It is not a measure of position.
- Quartile divides a data set into four equal - parts. For example, the first quartile ($Q_1$) is the value below which 25% of the data lies, the second quartile ($Q_2$ or median) is the middle - value (below which 50% of the data lies), and the third quartile ($Q_3$) is the value below which 75% of the data lies. So, quartiles are measures of position.
- Mode is the most frequently occurring value in a data set. It is a measure of central tendency, not of position.
- Mean is the average of a data set. It is a measure of central tendency, not of position.
