Study the Minitab histogram of the following data and discuss what can be learned about the shoppers. Exercise 7 Shown here is an Excel-produced pie chart representing physician specialties. What does the chart tell you about the various specialties? Exercise 8 Suppose 100 CPA firms are surveyed to determine how many audits they perform over a certain time, The data are summarized using the Minitab stem-and-leaf plot shown in the next column. What can you learn about the number of audits being performed by these firms from this plot?Exercise 9 ‘The following Excel ogive shows toy sales by a company over a 12-month period.
