(b) Create four additional columns for Table 2, one for relative frequency, one for percentage, one for cumulative frequency, and one for cumulative percentage. (©) From (b), find the percentage of students who sent 3 or less emails to the professor. (4) Use an online bar plot tool such as the Plotly Chart Studio ¢httpsifichart- studio.plot ly) to make a bar plot for the data in Table 2, For compactness, group the frequencies for the classes 8 and 21 into a single class “8+”. Make sure your bar plot has properly-labelled x and y-axis names.

In 1972, Gendreau etal. reported a/study of 20 inmates in a Canadian prison who were randomly split into ‘wo groups. In one group, the members placed in solitary confinement. In another, the members were allowed to siay in their own cells. After seven days, alpha-wave ‘frequencies (measured in Hz) were measured for all subjects (Table 3) Coni 99 93 9o7 109 9.2 96 104 103 95 10 112 9.0 ed Table3: Alpha-wave frequencies (in Hz) of 20 Canadiaa inmates, The subjects were randomised into ‘non-confined und confined treatment groups. (@) Calculate the sample mean and standard deviation for both groups. Which group has the larger sample mean? () _Stem-and-Leaf plots easy to make and useful for visualising distribution of small data sets, Make them for both groups by hand, (©) Altematively, we can also visualise the data in Table 3 using histograms (Figure 3).
