Study Notes

Service Times Summary

  • Summary includes 47 individuals.
  • Original service times remain indeterminate due to class limits.

Frequency Table of Grades

  • Grades: A (2), B (11), C (17), D (6), F (2).
  • Relative frequencies calculated as follows:
    • A: 5.26%, B: 28.95%, C: 44.74%, D: 15.79%, F: 5.26%.

Frequency Distribution of Awards by Age

  • Lower class limits: 25, 35, 45, 55, 65, 75, 85.
  • Upper class limits: 34, 44, 54, 64, 74, 84, 94.
  • Class width is 10.
  • Midpoints are: 29.5, 39.5, 49.5, 59.5, 69.5, 79.5, 89.5.
  • Class boundaries include 24.5 as the lowest boundary.
  • Total individuals: 90.

Blood Platelet Count Distribution

  • Class limits: 0-99, 100-199, 200-299, 300-399, 400-499, 500-599, 600-699.
  • Total individuals computed as 153.
  • Class widths are set at 100.
  • Midpoints range from 49.5 to 649.5.
  • Class boundaries start from -0.5 to 699.5.

Normal Distribution Check

  • The distribution does not appear to be normal based on strict interpretation of criteria.

BMI Frequency Distribution

  • Constructed from BMI values for 20 females with class limits starting at 15.0 and width of 6.0.
  • Frequency counts for BMI ranges:
    • 15.0-20.9: 3,
    • 21.0-26.9: 8,
    • 27.0-32.9: 5,
    • 33.0-38.9: 2,
    • 39.0-44.9: 2.

Screw Length Frequency Distribution

  • Class limits start at 3.220 inches with a 0.010 inch width.
  • Classes include ranges like 3.220-3.229 and 3.230-3.239.

Daily Rainfall Distribution

  • Constructed with a lower limit of 0.00 and a width of 0.20.
  • Recorded data frequencies: 21, 6, 2, 0, 0, 0, 1.
  • Distribution is not symmetric and does not exhibit normal characteristics.

Weight Data Analysis

  • Last digits of weights from 10 students produced a frequency distribution.
  • Discrepancies in distribution suggest weights may be reported, particularly more 0s and 5s indicate less accurate measurements.

Data Variation Characteristic

  • Variation is the term used to measure the degree of variability among data values.

Understanding Data Distribution

  • A frequency distribution aids in comprehending data set distribution nature.

Relative Frequency Concept

  • In a relative frequency distribution, class frequencies are expressed as proportions or percentages.
