2) a) What is the mode of data set? Make sure the answer is correct. c) Number of observations and proportions
2)- Industrial engineers periodically conduct "work measurement' analysis to determine the time required to produce a
single unit of output. At a large processing plant, the number of total worker-hours required per day to perform a certain
task was recorded for 50 days. The data are shown here:

a) Compute the mean, median, and mode of the data set.
b) Find the range, variance, and standard deviation of the data set.
c) Construct the interval yto, y± 2ơ, and y ± 3o. count the number of observations that fall within each
interval and find the corresponding proportions. Compare the results to the Empirical Rule. Do you detect any outliers?
d) Construct a box plot for the data. Do you detect any outliers?
e) Find the 70th percentile for the data on total daily worker-hours. Interpret its value.
