Explanation / Answer

1)       Given the following raw data{1, 3, 5, 5, 5, 7, 7, 8, 9, 10}, find

a) mean = 6

b) median = 5+7/2=6

c) mode 5

d) range = 1 to 10

e) s = 2.6 round to 3

f) construct a 3 standard deviation line (3 times 2.6 =7.8) so6 plus or minus 7.8 so: -1.8 to +13.8

g) what value is exactly 2 standard deviations below the mean?6-5.2=0.8

h) what % of the data is within 1 standard deviation 6-2.6 to6+2.6 , so 6 of the 10 numbers = 60%
