Suppose both the mean and median of a distribution are 12. Which of these statements is true about the mode of the distribution?. . A.The mode is less than 12.. B.There is not enough information to compare the mode.. C.The mode is equal to 12.. D.The mode is greater than 12.
The statement that is true about the mode of distribution is there is not enough information to compare the mode. The correct answer is B.
Answer:
C.The mode is equal to 12
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Mean of a distribution= 12
Median of distribution=12
We have to find the true statement about the mode of the distribution.
We know that the relation between mode, mean and median
Mean-mode=3(mean-median)
Substitute the values in the formula then, we get
12-Mode=3(12-12)=3(0)=0
Mode=12
Hence, the mode of the distribution=12
Answer:C.The mode is equal to 12
