(a) What is the most precise correct statement that you can make about the numerical value of the median of the data from

source 2? Do not explain your answer.

Hint: Here is a correct statement: The median is between 0 and 20. This statement

is not precise enough to receive any credit.

(b) Among the possibilities 1.50, 2.00 and

2.50, which is the numerical value of s for

the data from source 1? Explain your answer.

(c) Among the possibilities 1.00, 1.50 and

2.00, which is the numerical value of s for

the data from source 2? Explain your answer.

1. Measurements are collected from 100 subjects from each of two sources. The data yield the following frequency histograms. The number above each rectangle is its height. Source 1 10 10 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 21 Source 2 16 17 18 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 Each sample has the same mean, 10.00. In order to answer (b) and (e) below, refer to the empirical rule for interpreting, taking into account the shape of the histogram. Do not try to calculates because you do not have enough information to do so. In addition, you will receive no credit for simply identifying the correct ; you must provide an explanation. 1.
