Answer :
7) The measure of center would be best to compare the data sets is Median (Option B)
8) Where the above is given, the correct statement is "The greatest value, 78. is the only outlier." (Option C)
7) The median is the best measure because it is less affected by outliers and skewed distributions compared to the mean.
Since the distributions are not specified to be symmetric, the median provides a more robust measure of central tendency. Therefore, the correct choice is: "The median is the best measure because both distributions are symmetric."
8) In the given dataset, the value 78 lies outside the upper bound of the potential outliers calculated using the interquartile range method.
Therefore, 78 is considered the only outlier in the dataset. (Option C)
