De student geeft het juiste antwoord, namelijk dat de midrange een betere parameter is dan de mean. De midrange geeft immers een kleinere spreiding weer dan de mean.
Dit kan je enerzijds zien in de tabel, laatste kolom (IQR). De IQR geeft het verschil aan tussen Q1 en Q3. Je ziet duidelijk dat dit verschil het kleinste is bij de midrange (0.75) tov 1,5999 bij de median en 2.3840 bij de mean.
Anderzijds kan je dit opmerken bij de laatste grafiek, de bootstrap simulation.
De mean geeft de breedste box weer, ze ligt namelijk tussen 85 en 88. De median heeft al een smallere box (tussen 86 en 88) en de midrange is maar een enkelvoudige box.

Het is inderdaad juist dat de midrange de beste parameter is om aan schatting te doen. Dit is te wijden aan de kleinere spreiding in vergelijking met het gemiddelde.
