outliers
A value that "lies outside" (is much smaller or larger than) most of the other values in a set of data.
range
The difference between the lowest and highest values.
In {4, 6, 9, 3, 7} the lowest value is 3, and the highest is 9, so the range is 9-3 = 6.
In {4, 6, 9, 3, 7} the lowest value is 3, and the highest is 9, so the range is 9-3 = 6.
mode
The mode is the number that is repeated more often than any other
median
- The median is the middle value, so I'll have to rewrite the list in order:
- 13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21
- 13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21
mean
- The mean is the usual average, so: (13 + 18 + 13 + 14 + 13 + 16 + 14 + 21 + 13) ÷ 9 = 15
