In: Statistics and Probability
So for the question I have, is 32 people responded to a survey question regarding how many pets they currently owned. 3 people said 0, 4 said 1, 7 said 2, 4 said 3, 2 said 4, 2 said 5, 2 said 6, 1 said 7, 1 said 8, 1 said 9, 1 said 11, 1 said 14, and 1 said 18. leaving 12,13,15,16,17 with no results.
how do i figure out this below?
Count, Minimum ,Maximum,1st Quartile ,3rd Quartile ,Median ,Mean ,Standard Deviation ,Mode ,Z Value for Minimum .Z Value for Maximum ,Range? Thank you
Count
Count is the total count of the data.
Thus, the count is 30.
Minimum
Minimum is the minimum value of the data points. Thus, the minimum is 0.
Maximum
Maximum is the maximum value of the data points. Thus, the maximum is 18.
1st quartile
First quartile is the 7.5th value.
This is 7th value + 8th value by 2.
= (1+2)/2
= 1.5
3rd quartile
First quartile is the 22.5th value.
This is 22nd value + 23rd value by 2.
= (5+6)/2
= 5.5
Median
First quartile is the 15th value.
= 3
Mean
Mean is equal to the sum of all values, divided by the number of values.
The sum of the values= 3*0 + 4*1 + 7*2 + 4*3 + 2*4 + 2*5 + 2*6 + 1*7 + 1*8 + 1*9 + 1*11 + 1*14 + 1*18
= 0+4+14+12+8+10+12+7+8+9+11+14+18
= 4+26+18+19+17+25+18
= 30+37+42+18
= 67+60
= 127/ 30
= 4.23
Standard deviation
This is the sum of squared deviations from the mean.
= sqrt (sum(x-mean)2/ n-1)
= 4.231926
Mode
The mode is the most frequently occuring value. The value is 2.
Z value for minimum
= (0-4.23)/4.231926
= -0.9995449
Z value for maximum
= (18-4.23)/4.231926
= 3.253838
Range
The range is the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value. Thus,
range= 18-0
= 18
