A survey of enrollment at 35 community colleges across the United States yielded the following figures: 6414; 1550; 2109; 9350; 21828; 4300; 5944; 5722; 2825; 2044; 5481; 5200; 5853; 2750; 10012; 6357; 27000; 9414; 7681; 3200; 17500; 9200; 7380; 18314; 6557; 13713; 17768; 7493; 2771; 2861; 1263; 7285; 28165; 5080; 11622 a. Organize the data into a chart with five intervals of equal width. Label the two columns "Enrollment" and "Frequency." b. Construct a histogram of the data. c. If you were to build a new community college, which piece of information would be more valuable: the mode or the mean? d. Calculate the sample mean. e. Calculate the sample standard deviation. f. A school with an enrollment of 8000 would be how many standard deviations away from the mean?
