In: Statistics and Probability
Collecting Averages of Groups of Five Repeat steps one through
five (of the section titled Collect the Data) with one exception.
Instead of recording the change of 30 classmates, record the
average change of 30 groups of five. 1. Randomly survey 30groups of
fiveclassmates. 2. Record the values of the average of their
change.

3. Construct a histogram. Scale the axes using the same scaling you
used for the section titled Collect the Data. Sketch the graph
using a ruler and a pencil.

4. Calculate the following (n= 5; surveying five people at a time):
a. x ¯ = _______ b. s= _______ 5. Draw a smooth curve through tops
of the bars of the histogram. Use one to two complete sentences to
describe the general shape of the curve. Discussion Questions 1.
Why did the shape of the distribution of the data change, as n
changed? Use one to two complete sentences to explain what
happened. 2. In the section titled Collect the Data, what was the
approximate distribution of the data? X ~ _____(_____,_____) 3. In
the section titled Collecting Averages of Groups of Five, what was
the approximate distribution of the averages? X ¯ ~
_____(_____,_____) 4. In one to two complete sentences, explain any
differences in your answers to the previous two
questions.
