The second set has a slightly higher location and spread. Then 0. Using the range approximation, 4 9 4 2.
The intervals, counts and percentages are shown in the table. This is because the shape of the distribution is not mound-shaped, but flat. The distribution will probably be skewed right. Therefore, the approximate values given by the Empirical Rule are not accurate, indicating that the distribution cannot be mound-shaped. The tally and the relative frequency histogram follow. Then 7.
Note that the Empirical Rule should be fairly accurate, as indicated by the mound- shape of the histogram in part a. Then 2 2 2 2 , 30 This is because the distribution is not quite mound-shaped. A typical histogram is shown below. Note that the Empirical Rule is not very accurate for the first interval, since the histogram in part a is skewed.
A typical stem and leaf plot is generated by Minitab. Then Then 21 1. Then, 79 4. Find the positions of the quartiles, and the measurements that are just above and below those positions. Then find the quartiles by interpolation. The lower quartile is in position 0. Hence, 15 6 2 5. Then 57 4. The positions of the quartiles are 0. The lower and upper fences are: 1 3 1. The box plot is shown below.
Then the lower and upper fences are: 1 3 1. Since there are no outliers, the whiskers connect the box to the minimum and maximum values in the ordered set. Mercury c-d The boxplot does not identify any of the measurements as outliers, mainly because the large variation in the measurements cause the IQR to be large. However, the student should notice the extreme difference in the magnitude of the first four observations taken on young dolphins.
These animals have not been alive long enough to accumulate a large amount of mercury in their bodies. Weight 1. The sorted measurements are shown below. For Peyton Manning, 22 25 2 For Peyton Manning, calculate 3 1 The box plots are shown below. Manning Favre Completed Passes c Answers will vary. The Favre distribution is relatively symmetric except for the one outlier; the Manning distribution is roughly symmetric, probably mound-shaped. The Manning distribution is slightly more variable; Manning has a higher median number of completed passes.
The distribution is skewed to the right with three outliers Truman, Cleveland and F. The box plot is shown on the next page. The mean is There are no outliers. The long left whisker and the median line located to the right of the center of the box indicates that the distribution that is skewed to the left. The student should notice the outliers in the female group, and that the median female temperature is higher than the median male temperature.

Across the platform another tram going the other way came to a stop. Just as our door began to close, the door of the other tram opened.

While retaining the straightforward presentation and traditional outline for descriptive and inferential statistics, this new edition incorporates helpful learning aids like MyPersonal Trainer, MyApplet, and MyTip to ensure that students learn and understand the relevance of the material.
Written for the higher end of the traditional introductory statistics market, the book takes advantage of modern technology--including computational software and interactive visual tools--to facilitate statistical reasoning as well as the interpretation of statistical results. In addition to showing how to apply statistical procedures, the authors explain how to describe real sets of data meaningfully, what the statistical tests mean in terms of their practical applications, how to evaluate the validity of the assumptions behind statistical tests, and what to do when statistical assumptions have been violated.
Users will also appreciate the book's error-free material and exercises. The new edition retains the statistical integrity, examples, exercises, and exposition that have made this text a market leader--and builds upon this tradition of excellence with new technology integration. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version. The book is divided into three parts: Chapters form the core of probability fundamentals and foundations;Chapters cover statistics inference; and the remainingchapters focus on special topics.
For course sequences thatseparate probability and mathematics statistics, the first part ofthe book can be used for a course in probability theory, followedby a course in mathematical statistics based on the second part,and possibly, one or more chapters on special topics. Thebook contains over problems, worked-out examples, and side notes for reader reference.
Numerous figures have beenadded to illustrate examples and proofs, and answers to selectproblems are now included.
