a) Find the mean, median, mode, and range b) Create a box-and-whisker plot c) Create a histogram

2. Find the standard deviation for the following: 15, 14, 18, 12, 14, 18, 20, 17

3. The January exams for math 11 were all piled together and found to have a mean of 68% with a standard deviation of 6. Assuming normal distribution, draw the normal curve and answer the following questions.

a) What percent of the students had marks between 68% and 74%? b) What percent had marks between 56% and 74%? c) If the results are for 240 students, how many had a mark over 74%?

4. You shuffle a deck of cards and ask 100 people to close their eyes and pick any six cards. The cards were then replaced and reshuffled. You record how many reds were picked by each person.

a) Explain why this is a binomial situation. b) How might the results have differed if you asked only 40 people?

5. Forty randomly chosen people were asked, "Do you get enough sleep?". Seventeen replied "yes". a) Find the point estimate for this survey. b) Write an approximate 90% confidence interval for the population proportion using the diagram

on page 203.

6. Suppose that out of 401 people polled, 286 said that they preferred watching movies in a theatre to watching them at home. Write a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion.

7. Data concerning the conviction rate in criminal trials was kept in the Seine Department in France between 1825 and 1830. In 1825 there were 567 convictions of the 802 accused. In 1830 there were 484 convictions of the 804 accused. Explain whether or not there was a statistically significant change in the five year period?
