Mean < Median b. Mean > Median c. Mean would equal median
DATA 3100 | Making Decisions with Data Module 4: Homework Set 3 + Excel Set 2 2.51 – Skip F a. Skewed right, due to the high executive level positions such as president or department heads that would have higher income than most faculty. b. Skewed left, most students would assumably score high and then the few outliers would be the low end. c. Skewed right, most students would score poorly, but the few who scored high would bring the mean up. d. Symmetrical, I imagine that for every student that did no studying there was one that did lots of studying and everything in between. e. Skewed left, assuming that used car lots would have more older vehicles than brand new or even just a few years old. Excel Set 2 Answer the below problems from the textbook. In this template doc, provide your written responses and any requested formulas from your Excel file. Upload both your Excel file and this completed document to the Canvas assignment page by its due date/time. 2.46 After reading Exercise 2.46 in the text, you can optionally copy the table shown in the textbook into Excel in the first worksheet (Sheet 1) to answer the questions. 2.46A The mean of the Attach samples was significantly lower than that of the normal, given the higher max we can assume there was a few outlying data points but for the attacking samples most happened around the ~250-275 range, unlike the normal data, showing the opposite, of low outliers and higher data points. 2.46B
DATA 3100 | Making Decisions with Data Module 4: Homework Set 3 + Excel Set 2 The medians are both lower than the means, meaning that there were a few higher data points that would draw the mean up, but showing the median being closer to the ~200-230 range gives better description of what the data set really looks like. 2.46C I would make the conclusion for both data sets, the graphs would be skewed right, with the bulk of the data points in the ~200-250 range but each sample having a few high outlying points to bring the means up. 2.49 After reading Exercise 2.49 in the text, you will need to copy the HCOUGH.xlsx dataset on Canvas – NOT the data in the textbook table – into Excel in a worksheet (Sheet 2) to answer the questions. 2.49A - 11
