A) What is the mean of this data?
B) What is the five number summary of the distribution
C) based on the answers above , is the distribution symmetric, skewed right or skewed left? explain your answer
Solution
Mean = Sum of Observations/Number of Observations = 317/15 = 21.133
----------------------------------------
5 Number Statistics:
1. Minimum = 3
2. First Quartile = 6.5
3. Median = 13
4. Third Quartile = 34
5. Maximum = 56
------------------------------------------
3) Mean = 21.1333
Median = 13
Since, Mean > Median, the distribution is right skewed.
