### By using Excel:

First we sort the data

Class frequency
"71-75" 4
"76-80" 13
"81-85" 18
"86-90" 26
"91-95" 10
"96-100" 10
"101-105" 3

Q1.

a) Here the maximum =103

minimum=72

Therefore range=maximum-minimum

=103-72

=31

Range=31

b) Here total number of score is n=84

1) First quartile score =0.25*n

=0.25*84

=21

Therefore the score whose rank is 21 represents first quartile.

Hence first quartile=82

2) Third quartile score =0.75*n

=0.75*84

=63

Therefore the score whose rank is 63 represents third quartile.

Hence third quartile= 92

3) 90th percentile score=0.90* n

=0.90*84

=75.6

Therefore the score whose rank is 76 represents 90th percentile.

Hence 90th percentile =97

4) The score 81 is at the rank of 18.

therefore Percentile rank of a score of 81=(18/n) *100=(18/84)*100

=0.2143*100

=21.43

The Percentile rank of a score of 81 is 21th percentile.

5) The score 87 is at the rank of 41.

therefore Percentile rank of a score of 87=(47/n) *100=(47/84)*100

=0.5595*100

=55.95

The Percentile rank of a score of 87 is 96th percentile.

Researchers were studying the effects of aerobic exercise on diastolic blood pressure in patients newly diagnosed with heart disease. The goal of this study is to identify changes in blood pressure in each patient after carrying out a new weekly aerobic exercise routine (given to each patient) for 6 months. Researchers measured the diastolic blood pressure of each patient at the beginning of the study (baseline) and 6 months after. The results of the study are listed in Table 2....
