INTRODUCTION
Central tendency is the typical value which is probability for the distribution and it is also
known as centre or location of the distribution. This report will explain about the humidity
temperature in Manchester city. Along with, central tendency formula and formulating through
using linear equation.

2. Data chart for the given humidity.

3. Calculation of central tendency
The mean is the average of the number. Which is easily calculated and add up all the member
then divided by how many numbers are given. Mainly, represent the average of the given
collection of data and it is also relevant for both recreate and continuous data (Aunio and et.al.,
2021). Along with this it is also equal with all the value in form of collection data that is divided
by the total number of values.
Mean = sum of all data/ number of data
= 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10/10
= 5.5
Median- the middle number of sorted list of given number. Along with this it is also used for
determining an appropriate mean, average, but it could not create the confusion about the actual
mean. While if there is odd number, the median value is middle and the same amount of number

which is shown as below and above (Duyen and Loc, 2022). While it does not affect the by very
large or very small values. Median = 0.995
Mode- It is the most common observed value which is set of data and keep the normal
distribution about the mode value as mean and median. The most frequent of the largest number
of data set is occur that is known as mode. Moreover, the mode is the amount from of data set
which keep the advanced frequence and is being calculated by the number of times values data
occurs (Edward and et.al., 2021). In given data set, there can be more than one mode and there
can be no mode, it means that mode is always symbolical of the given data. Mode = 0.92
Range- Numerical measures, the difference between the high value and small value. It is the
simplest form of measure in given data set (Range = Max- Min). The range which is spread
about the given data from the high value to small value in the distribution. Moreover, it could be
commonly used for measuring the variability. While the measure of variability and central
tendency which could lead with the descriptive statistics for summarizing about the present data
set. Range = 24
Standard deviation- This is measure of the given amount within the dispersion or variation of
set and keep the values (Erceg, Galić and Bubić, 2022). Along with this low standard deviation
that indicates for the values tend and might be close to the mean of the given data set. Standard
deviation= 0.0741

M= N Σxy- Σx Σy/ N Σx2- (Σx)2
= 10(4578- 55*855)/ 10*385 - (55)2
= -1245/ 825

C= Σy – mΣx/ N
= 855- (-1.50) (55)/10
= 855 – (-825)/10

when, x=11
y= mx+c
y= -1.50(11) + 168
= -16.5 +168
= 151.5
when, x= 13
y= mx +c
y = -1.50 (13)+ 168
y= -19.5 +168
y= 148.5

CONCLUSION
From the above report it had been concluded that, central tendency that help for finding out
the humidity level in given city. Moreover, using the graph with the given data set have been
used in this report.
