For each of the following statements, select
Yes if the statement is true based on the information provided; otherwise select
No.
• The median points per game of All-Star players is greater than the maximum points per game of non-All-Star players. The All-Star point values are 24, 27, 20, 22, 19, 26, 21, 25, and 23. When ordered from least to greatest they are 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, giving a median of 23. The non-All-Star point values are 18, 15, 13, 16, 12, and 14, with a maximum of 18. Since 23 is greater than 18, the statement is true.
Answer:
Yes • The mode of assists is greater than the range of assists. Mode means the most frequent value, and range means the difference between the highest and lowest value. Checking the column, the mode is 5 because it appears the most frequently (4 times). The range is 7 − 2 = 5. Since the mode is equal to the range, not greater, the statement is false.
Answer:
No • Points and turnovers are directly proportional to each other. Directly proportional means the ratio of points to turnovers should be constant across the players. The ratios vary widely, for example Chang has 27/3.4 ≈ 7.9, while Lopez has 12/1.8 ≈ 6.7. Since the ratios are not constant, the statement is false.
