Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

A measure of central tendency alone does not give a complete picture of the data set. The object of summary measures is to visualize the data set based on these measures. Hence, the measure of central tendency locates the data set, but a measure of variation completes the picture by describing the dispersion in the data about the location measure.
