1 Refer to the following description: A group of bird-watchers is trying to determine what types of birds is common in their area. The group observed 21 sparrows, 15 purple finches, 10 chickadees, 5 cardinals and 2 blue jays. a)Is the data quantitative or qualitative b)Create a frequency table c)Create a bar graph

2 A study is done to determine the average commuting time of employees at a company. A total of 34 employees are surveyed, with the following results in minutes: 31.9, 34, 30.7, 39, 33.1, 35.2, 30.5, 32.7, 29.4, 33.4, 22.3, 31.9, 32.3, 29.4, 33, 18.2, 29.1, 32.5, 22.2, 36.1, 27.7, 36, 31.9, 26, 31.7, 23.2, 30.7, 24.4, 33, 28.4, 28.8, 23.3, 32.2, 22.8 a)Is the data quantitative or qualitative b)Is the data discrete or continuous c)Create a stem plot d)Create a histogram with class intervals of 5 minutes e)Use the histogram to describe the shape

3 31.9, 34, 30.7, 39, 33.1, 35.2, 30.5, 32.7, 29.4, 33.4, 22.3, 31.9, 32.3, 29.4, 33, 18.2, 29.1, 32.5, 22.2, 36.1, 27.7, 36, 31.9, 26, 31.7, 23.2, 30.7, 24.4, 33, 28.4, 28.8, 23.3, 32.2, 22.8 a)Find the mean b)Find the median c)Find the mode d)Find the sample standard deviation e)Find the range f)Find the 1 st and 3 rd quartiles g)Find the interquartile range h)Create a box plot

4 Outcome12345 Probability.1.4.1 a)Suppose the probabilities are the same for outcomes 2 and 4. Complete the distribution b)What is the probability the outcome is an even # c)What is the probability the outcome is greater than 2 d)Suppose the experiment with the given probability distribution is repeated 3 times. Assuming the trials are independent, what is the probability of the outcome {1,2,3}

5 An experiment consists of spinning the spinner at left 3 times. A probability distribution for the outcomes is given below (w=white, r = red) Outco me WWWWWRWRWRWWWRRRWRRRWRRR Prob..512.128.032.008 A random variable is assigned to the # of times the spinner lands on red: a)What is the range of the random variable b)What is the probability that the value of the random variable is 2 c)Create a prob. distribution for the random variable d)Find the expected value of the random var.

6 A sock drawer contains 6 identical black socks, 8 identical white socks, and 1 blue sock. A sock is chosen randomly from the drawer. Assume all socks are equally likely to be chosen. a)What is the prob. of choosing a black sock? A white sock? A blue sock? b)Suppose a black sock is chosen. What is the probability that the next sock chosen will also be black? c)Suppose a white sock is chosen. What is the probability that the next sock chosen will also be white? d)Suppose a blue sock is chosen. What is the probability that the next sock chosen will also be blue?

7 A lottery ticket involves matching 5 #’s between 1 and 50 in any order. What is the probability of matching all 5 #’s. What is the probability of matching any 4 #’s.

8 A committee of 8 people randomly chooses 3 people in order to be president, vice- president, and treasurer. In how many ways can the officers be chosen?
