1. The length of time from the initial exposure to HIV infection to the diagnosis of AIDS is termed as the
   incubation period. An arbitrary dataset for the incubation period of a random selection of 8 HIV infected patients is presented in the table below:

1. Compute the appropriate measure(s) of central tendency and address its worthiness.


2. Calculate the measure(s) of dispersion and discuss which measure is the most appropriate one and why?

What will happen to the sample mean, median, standard deviation if a particular data point 6.8 above has adjusted to 1.5? Discuss whether it will increase, decrease, or remain the same.
