A sample of blood pressure measurements is taken from a data set and those values (mm Hg) are listed below. The values are matched so that subjects each have systolic and diastolic measurements. Find the mean and median for each of the two samples and then compare the two sets of results. Are the measures of center the best statistics to use with these data? What else might be better? Systolic: 151 153 122 152 108 120 116 139 130 Diastolic: 61 68 71 54 83 52 60 82 79 Find the means. The mean for systolic is (Type integers or decimals Find the medians. mm Hg and the mean for diastolic is mm Hg. rounded to one decimal place as needed.) The median for systolic is mm Hg and the median for diastolic is (Type integers or decimals rounded to one decimal place as needed.) Compare the results. Choose the correct answer below. 1150 58 mm Hg. O A. The mean is lower for the diastolic pressure, but the median is lower for the systolic pressure. O B. The mean and the median for the systolic pressure are both lower than the mean and the median for the diastolic pressure. O C. The mean and the median for the diastolic pressure are both lower than the mean and the median for the systolic pressure. O D. The mean and median appear to be roughly the same for both types of blood pressure. O E. The median is lower for the diastolic pressure, but the mean is lower for the systolic pressure. Are the measures of center the best statistics to use with these data?
