To find: whether the given data is
Answer to Problem 13PT
The given data is not normally distributed.
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
For better understanding, plot a Box plot from the given
From the above summary statistics and box plot, it is noticed that the mean is greater than the median value. Also, it is observed that distance between the minimum value and median is less than the distance between maximum value and median. So, the distribution of the data is right skewed. As it is known that a data with normal distribution is symmetric in shape, therefore the given data is not normally distributed.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the given data is not normally distributed.
