The number of patients coming into a hospital's emergency clinic between midnight and 6:00 AM was recorded each day for several days. Use the median procedure for finding quartiles to find the first, second, and third quartiles for the data. And hence draw the box-and-whisker plot. Number of Patients (Midnight - 6AM) 20 7 11 13 17 20 16 10 22 16 12 13 20 21 12 10 7
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.
