Think of something in your work or personal life that you measure regularly. (No actual calculation of the mean, standard deviation, or z-scores is necessary.) What value is "average"? What values would you consider to be unusually high or unusually low? If a value were unusually high or lowhow would it change your response to the measurement?

Classmates answer: The one "measure" I can think of in my personal life is how long it typically workout. On a daily basis, I work our 4-5 times a week averaging 45 minutes a workout. My unusual high for working out is usually a hour and a half. I love to run and weightlift when I workout, so sometimes I might run longer or do some extra reps. My unsual low for working out can be as low as 20 minutes. Some days can I can be very tired and just want an easy day. When looking at my unusual high and low it can change how I would feel for the next day. I might be great and energized the next day or sleepy and slow going into work. In other words, it can change how I feel about the following day.

Example: I like to do average of 5-6 workouts per week. During those workouts I usually try to aim for 40-50 minutes a workout depending on the muscle groups I'm currently working on, and it can drop to the 15min mark on the unusual low (which are unexpected situations once I start working out), to the unusual high which would be around 1 hour +. It's interesting to read how similar workout routines can be, which kinda show that its a normal average number of days and times for most everyone that actively work out.
