Which of the following could be the one missing data item for the above set, if the mode is 4?
A.0
B.3
C.4
D.5
Can somebody plz check this, I think it's D
the mode is the value that occurs most often
0 and 4 already appear twice
so, if the mode is 4, then 4 appears the most times.
so, not D
thank you
To find the missing data item, we need to first identify the mode of the given data set. The mode is the value that appears most frequently in the set. In this case, the mode is 4, as it appears twice, while no other value appears more than once.
Now, let's analyze the options:
A. 0: This value already exists in the data set, so it cannot be the missing data item.
B. 3: This value is not present in the data set, so it could be the missing data item. However, we need to check the other options before reaching a conclusion.
C. 4: This value already exists in the data set, so it cannot be the missing data item.
D. 5: This value is not present in the data set, so it could be the missing data item.
After considering all the options, it is possible that either 3 or 5 could be the missing data item. Therefore, the correct answer could be either B or D.
