Your Answer:

387, 389, 392, 399, 401, 407, 410, 414, 417, 421, 437, 440, 450, 466,
488

Percentile position = (n+1) *p/100

= (15+1) * 60/100

=9.6

60th percentile lies between 9th and 10th position, those arer 417 & 421

P(60) = 417+0.6*(421-417)

P(60) = 419.4

There are a total of fifteen numbers, so n= 15. In order to find


the percentiles, we must put the numbers in ascending order:

387   389  392   399   401   407   410   414    417 421  437   440  
450    466   488

For the 60th percentile:

Therefore, the 60th percentile index for this data set is the 9th
observation. In the list above, the 9th observation is 417.

Suppose that you have a set of data that has a mean of 65 and a
standard deviation of 10.

a) Is the point 75 above, below, or the same as the mean. How many
standard deviations is 75 from the mean.

b) Is the point 85 above, below, or the same as the mean. How many
standard deviations is 85 from the mean.

c) Is the point 57.5 above, below, or the same as the mean. How many
standard deviations is 57.5 from the mean.

d) Is the point 107 above, below, or the same as the mean. How many
standard deviations is 107 from the mean.

Your Answer:

A) Z = 75-65)/10= 1

The point 75 is 1 standard deviation above the mean as 1 is a positive


value

B) Z = (85-65)/10 = 2

The point 85 is 2 standard deviation above the mean as 2 is a positive


value

C) Z = (57.5 - 65) / 10 = 0.75

The point 57.5 is -0.75 standard deviation below the mean as -0.75 is a
negative value

D) Z = (107-65) / 10 = 4.2

The point 107 is 4.2 standard deviation above the mean as 4.2 is a
positive value

a) The data point 75 is above the mean. Now use the z-score
to determine how many standard deviations 75 is above the
mean. We are told that the mean is 65 and the standard

deviation is 10. So, the z-score is given by:

The z-score is 1, so the data point 75 is 1 standard deviation


above the mean.

b) The data point 85 is above the mean. Now use the z-score
to determine how many standard deviations 85 is above the
mean. We are told that the mean is 65 and the standard
deviation is 10. So, the z-score is given by:

The z-score is 2, so the data point 85 is 2 standard deviation


above the mean.

c) The data point 57.5 is below the mean. Now use the z-score
to determine how many standard deviations 57.5 is below the
mean. We are told that the mean is 65 and the standard
deviation is 10. So, the z-score is given by:

The z-score is -.75, so the data point 57.5 is .75 standard


deviations below the mean.

d) The data point 107 is above the mean. Now use the z-score
to determine how many standard deviations 107 is above the
mean. We are told that the mean is 65 and the standard
deviation is 10. So, the z-score is given by:

The z-score is 4 2 so the data point 107 is 4 2 standard

The z score is 4.2, so the data point 107 is 4 2 standard
deviations above the mean.

a) Find the median.

b) Find the mode of this set.

Your Answer:

A) 

X = (25+20+5+12+29+18+21+12+15)/9

=157/9 = 17.44

a) In order to find the median, we must first put the numbers


in ascending order:

5, 12, 12, 15, 18, 20, 21, 25, 29.

Notice that the “middle” number is 18. So, Median = 18.

b) The number that occurs most is 12. So, the mode is 12.
