Consider the following data which represent the number of miles that employees commute from home to work each day. There are two samples: one for males and one for females. Males: 13 5 14 13 5 1 11 2 2 3 7 5 23 6 8 8 14 7 4 9 Females: 15 6 5 6 6 3 3 2 3 1 7 18 2 7 12 4 4 19 4 6 14. The coefficient of variation of commute miles for the males is: a. approximately 67 percent b. about 29.05. c. approximately 3.63. d. none of the above.

Step 1
To calculate the mean, we sum up all the commute miles for males and divide by the number of data points. Males: 13 5 14 13 5 1 11 2 2 3 7 5 23 6 8 8 14 7 4 9 Sum = 13 + 5 + 14 + 13 + 5 + 1 + 11 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 7 + 5 + 23 + 6 + 8 + 8 + 14 + 7 + 4 + 9 = 199 Number of Show more…

What is the 90th percentile? b. What is the 40th percentile? c. What are the median(Q2), first quartile(Q1), and third quartile(Q3)? d. If a student commute 11.2 miles, what is the percentile of this distance? 5. Consider the commuting distance data above (# 4 problem) a. Compute upper limit (UL) and lower limit(LL). c. Any outliers d. Draw a box plot

The data below represent commute times (in minutes) and scores on a well-being survey. Commute Time (minutes), x 5 15 30 40 60 72 105 Well-Being Index Score, y 69.3 68.4 67.3 66.9 65.9 66.0 63.9 (a) Find the least-squares regression line treating the commute time, x, as the explanatory variable and the index score, y, as the response variable. (b) Interpret the slope and y-intercept, if appropriate. (c) Predict the well-being index of a person whose commute time is 25 minutes. (d) Suppose Barbara has a 20-minute commute and scores 67.4 on the survey. Is Barbara more "well-off" than the typical individual who has a 20-minute commute?
