taken by randomly selected employees of a large corporation.
2 6 19 7 9 15 14 13 8 13 10 7 10 12 16 14
a.) Find the four “measures of center” and the standard
deviation of the sample. b.) Give the values of the 5-number
summary. Include a rough sketch of the boxplot. (It need not be
perfectly exact, but try to capture the spirit of the graph of the
five-number summary as well as you can.) c.) Based on the rule of
thumb involving the standard deviation, are there any values that
would be considered significantly low or high? Why? d.) Based on
the rule of thumb involving the interquartile range, are there any
outliers in the sample? Why?
