The course instructor is interested in the mean number of students who attend all review sessions held for this statistics course, and selects a sample of 15 review sessions spread out over a month’s time. The number of students who attended these 15 review sessions is as follows. How would you create a boxplot for this data?6 1 8 3 1 5 11 7 4 28 12 9 2 10 13ClickerMeasures of Central Location1. Mean – influenced by outliers - Population mean denoted by m - Sample mean denoted by X2. Median – resistant to outliers - Population median denoted by h - Sample median denoted by MB. Measures of Spread1. Range – measure of overall spread, influenced by outliers2. Standard Deviation – measure of spread around the mean, influenced by outliers- population standard deviation denoted s- sample standard deviation denoted by s 3. Interquartile Range – measure of spread around the median, resistant to outliersTI-83/84 CalculatorSee page 93 for instructions for using a calculator to compute the measures of center and spread.1. Hit STAT, then option 1:Edit, then enter the data into a list.2. Hit STAT, then scroll over to CALC3. Choose option 1: 1-Var Stats4. If the data is not in list 1 (L1), indicate the list the data is in (L2, L3, etc.) and hit ENTER5. X is the sample mean, Sx is the sample standard deviation, use minX and maxX to calculate the range, use Q1 and Q3 to calculate the IQR, and Med is the median.Motivating ExampleA statistics course at a large university provides free statistics review sessions that students can use to answer questions, with help solving problems, and with help studying for tests.
