To begin to better understand personal experiences of headache pain, a drug manufacturer has asked 17 adults to rate their most recent headache on a scale of 0 to 100

(with 0 corresponding to no pain and 100 corresponding to the greatest pain the person has ever felt). Here are the 17 ratings. 15, 16, 16, 16, 22, 28, 30, 31, 39, 39, 49, 50, 54, 66, 78, 85, 89 (a) Which measures of central tendency do not exist for this data set? Choose all that apply. (b) Suppose that the measurement 89 (the largest measurement in the data set) were replaced by 98. Which measures of central tendency would be affected by the change?Choose all that apply. (c) Suppose that, starting with the original data set, the smallest measurement were removed. Which measures of central tendency would be changed from those of the original data set? Choose all that apply. (d) The relative values of the mean and median for the original data set are typical of data that have a significant skew to the right. What are the relative values of the mean and median for the original data set?Choose only one.
