Select one answer. In a study of job satisfaction, we surveyed 30 faculty members at a local university. Faculty rated their job satisfaction on a scale of 1-10, with "not 10points at all satisfied" and 1o-totally satisfied. The histogram shows the distribution of faculty responses. Job Satisfaction 3 1 234 5 6 7 8910 Which is the most appropriate description of how to determine a typical faculty response for this distribution? A. O Use the mean rating, but remove the 3 faculty members with low ratings first. These are B. The median is 8. The mean will be lower because the ratings are skewed to the left. For C. O The median is 5. Most faculty have higher ratings, so the mean is close to 8. For this D. O Faculty that make more money have higher job satisfaction. For this reason the mean will outliers and will impact the mean, so they should be omitted this reason, the median is a better representation of the typical job satisfaction rating. reason the mean is a better representation of a typical faculty member. not represent the typical faculty member.Explanation / Answer

As here the data us left skewed, thus the value of mean is less than that of median , and the number of people with small values is also very less. The decision of more people is diverged towards upper scale. Thus the option be is correct, the median will be taken as the representative.
