Answer 2

The right answer to this question is option b: Descriptive statistics.

• Statistics is a technique for presenting data in a variety of forms, generating hypotheses, and deriving conclusions from a sample or population.
• In mathematics, measures of central tendency are a statistical method of determining the most central value which represents the entire sample. It includes average, median and mode.
• It gives us an answer in numerical form.
• Descriptive statistics is focused on quantitative computations, charts or graphical representations, and tables to display data about a sample or population.
• Because the central tendency is based on numerical data and not on making prior predictions for concluding, inferential statistics are incorrect.
• Hence, descriptive statistics is the best option.
