Question

which of the targets represents a data set that is accurate but not precise?
select the correct answer below:
target a
target b
target c
all of the above

Explanation:

Accuracy refers to how close a measurement is to the true value. Precision refers to how close multiple measurements are to each other.

• Target A: The single point is close to the center (accurate), but there's only one data point, so we can't assess precision.
• Target B: The point is far from the center (not accurate).
• Target C: The points are clustered around the center (accurate as a group), but they are spread out (not precise as individual measurements are not close to each other). So Target C represents a data set that is accurate but not precise.

Answer:

C. Target C
