Answer:
B. Median
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given data about time spent on Internet (min/day). We are asked to determine the best measure of central tendency for the given data.
Data: 75, 38, 43, 120, 65, 48, 52,
We can see that our given data has a very large value outlier (120), so it will increase the mean.
There is no mode for the given data set as no value repeats.
We know that median is best measure for data set with large valued outliers because median is not affected by outliers.
Therefore, option B is the correct choice.
The measure of central tendency that best describes the data is B. Median.
Mean:
= (75 + 38 + 43 + 120 + 65 + 48 + 52) / 7
= 69.86
Median:
We arrange data in ascending order: 38, 43, 48, 52, 65, 75, 120. Since there are seven values, the median is the middle value: 52
Mode: There is no value that appears more than once in the data set.
Therefore, the measure of central tendency that best describes the data is B. Median.

EXTRA POINTS
The Frostburg-Truth bus travels from Frostburg Mall through the city's center to Sojourner Truth Park. The mall is 4 miles east and 5 miles north of the city's center. Truth Park is 4 miles west and 2 miles south of the city's center. How far is it from Truth Park to the mall to the nearest tenth of a mile?
Select one:
a. 10.6 miles
b. 6.4 miles
c. 4.5 miles
d. 3 miles
the mall if 4 miles east and 5 miles north, which means that the city's center is 4 miles west and 5 miles south to the mall. Truth is 4 miles west and 2 miles south of the city's center. This means that:
The mall is 3 miles south of where Truth is (as the west cancel out)
d. 3 miles is your answer
