Step 1
Looking at the boxplot, we can see that the median (represented by the line inside the box) is closer to the lower quartile (represented by the bottom of the box) than the upper quartile (represented by the top of the box). This indicates that the distribution is Show more…

Fill in the blanks. In a normal distribution, 50% percent of the data are above the mean, and 50% percent of the data are below the mean. Similarly, 68% percent of all data points are within 1 standard deviation of the mean, 95% percent of all data points are within 2 standard deviations of the mean, and 99.7% percent are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Normal Distributions
A variable is normally distributed with a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 2. a. Determine the quartiles of the variable. b. Obtain and interpret the 80th percentile. c. Find the value that 65% of all possible values of the variable exceed. d. Find the two values that divide the area under the corresponding normal curve into a middle area of 0.95 and two outside areas of 0.025. Interpret the answer.
