ÂÂ
 6. Measures of Central Tendency.
a. Please name, define and find the measures of central tendency for number of Silver Sneaker sessions for women. (6 POINTS) SHOW ALL WORK. Include Solving the equation step by step if there is an equation you are also missing the definitions, median is incorrect....
 7. need to show all work,
