A town interested in installing wind turbines to generate electricity measures the speed of the wind in the town over the course of a year. They find that most of the time, the wind speed is pretty slow, while only rarely does the wind blow very fast during a storm. What would be the best measure of the central wind speed they should report to the mayor? The mean, because the distribution of wind speeds is skewed. The median, because the distribution of wind speeds is symmetric. The mean, because the distribution of wind speeds is symmetric. The median, because the distribution of wind speeds is skewed. The proportion, because the distribution of wind speeds is skewed. The proportion, because the distribution of wind speeds is symmetric.
