Frequency distribution worksheet with answers

Name: ______________________________ MAT 107 Project Directions: Please complete the following statistical analyses for the sample data that accompanies this project. If you do the work for this project by hand, you must show the work you do to arrive at your results. If you use technology (Excel, graphing calculator, etc.) to obtain the results, you must state the technology you used to obtain the results. 1. (5 points) Construct a grouped frequency distribution for the sample data. Use 6 classes. Use the minimum data value as the lower limit of the first class. Class Limits Class Boundaries Frequency Relative Frequency Cumulative Frequency 2. (3 points) Draw a histogram for the data set. Title the graph and label the axes appropriately. 3. (2 points) Does the distribution appear to be normal (yes or no)? Explain. 4. (6 points) Find the following descriptive statistics for the sample data. Mean Median Mode(s) Range Variance Standard Deviation 5. (3 points) Find the 5-number summary for the data. Min = _______________ Q1 = _______________ Q2 = _______________ Q3 = _______________ Max = _______________ 6. (2 points) Sketch a box plot. Do your best to draw it to scale. 7. (1 point) What is the IQR for this data set? ____________ 8. (3 points) Outlier identification Any data value less than ________or greater than_______ is to be considered an outlier. Therefore, the following data values are outliers (write “none” if there are no outliers): 9. (3 points) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population’s mean. ____________ < μ < ____________ 10. (2 points) If someone were to ask you what this particular confidence interval means, what would you say? 11. (5 points) Test the hypothesis that the population’s mean is different from the sample’s median value. Use α = 0.05. Alternative hypothesis (H1): ________________ Null hypothesis (H0): _____________________ Critical value: ____________ Test statistic: ____________ Conclusion: Do you reject the null hypothesis(yes or no)? _________ If someone were to ask what the conclusion means in this particular study, what would you say?
