In the year 2033, Kevon Robinson is a leading writer for a major TV show. Kevon is researching the number of words written per week (in 1000's) for the TV show. Kevon takes a random sample and develops the following table. Number of words written per week (in Frequency 1000's) 8 10 12 15 16 1 10 26 34 1 Standard deviation = 2.0 Mean: (8x1)(10x10)(12x26)(15x34)(16x1)/1+10+26+34+1=8+100+312+510+16/ a) Calculate the z score for the week in which 16 thousand words were written for the TV show. Based on the z score, would you classify this measurement as an outlier? Why or why not?
