Summarizing Numerical Data Sets in Context

For each contextual data set, report its observations and units, calculate centre and variability, describe its shape, and choose a representative centre.

  1. 1.
    quiz score data (points): {35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49}. How many observations are in this data set?
  2. 2.
    quiz score data (points): {35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49}. What attribute was measured, and in what unit?
  3. 3.
    quiz score data (points): {35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49}. Find the mean and median.
  4. 4.
    quiz score data (points): {35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49}. Find the interquartile range (IQR).
  5. 5.
    quiz score data (points): {35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49}. Describe the overall shape: Symmetric or Right-skewed?
  6. 6.
    quiz score data (points): {35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49}. Which measure best describes a typical centre: Mean, Median, or either?
  7. 7.
    journey time to school data (minutes): {29, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 58}. How many observations are in this data set?
  8. 8.
    journey time to school data (minutes): {29, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 58}. What attribute was measured, and in what unit?
