Math Problem Statement
If you are planning to purchase a cell phone, are any of the measures of center the most important statistic? Is there another statistic that is most relevant? If so, which one?
A.
The minimum data value is the most relevant statistic, because it is closest to the limit of 1.6W/kg and that cell phone should be purchased.
B.
The maximum data value is the most relevant statistic, because it is closest to the limit of 1.6W/kg and that cell phone should be avoided.
C.
The mean of the data set is the most important statistic because cell phones that have values close to it have the safest emissions.
D.
The midpoint of the data set is the most important statistic because cell phones that have values close to it have the safest emissions.
