Question

Assume now that taking into account the genders of the persons whose heights were given in
Question 1, we get the following sets:


Height in centimeters – males
171 178 157 171 175 182 162 167 166
170 154 190 156 180 166 184 161 159

Height in centimeters – females
152 149 158 166 150 144 167 152 153
152 165 154 162 166 153 157 161 152
