Answer:
A lurking variable is a variable that has an important effect on the relationship among the variables in the study, but is not one of the explanatory variables studied. Two variables are confounded when their effects on a response variable cannot be distinguished from each other.
Using binomial distribution where success is the appearing of any of the top 10 most common names, thus probability of success (p) is 9.6% = 0.096 and the probability of failure = 1 - 0.096 = 0.904. Number of trials is 11.
Binomial distribution probability is given by P(x) = nCx (p)^x (q)^(n - x)
Probability that none of the top 10 most common names appears is P(0) = 11C0 (0.096)^0 (0.904)^(11 - 0) = (0.904)^11 = 0.3295
Thus, the probability that at least one of the 10 most common names appear is 1 - 0.3295 = 0.6705
Therefore, I will be supprised that none of the names of the authors were among the 10 most common names given that the probability that at least one of the names appear is 67%.
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
Parentheses:
(18 - 14) = 4
(4 x 2) = 8
4 x 8
Multiplication:
4 x 8 = 32

The box and whisker plot is attached.
We first order the data from least to greatest:
6, 7, 11, 13, 14, 15, 15, 19, 21
The median is the middle value, or 14.
The lower quartile is the median of the lower half (split by the median). This is between 7 and 11: (7+11)/2 = 18/2 = 9
The upper quartile is the median of the upper half (split by the median). This is between 15 and 19: (15+19)/2 = 34/2 = 17
The highest value is 21.
The lowest value is 6.
We draw the middle line of the box at 14, the median. We draw the left side of the box at the lower quartile, 9. We draw the right side of the box at the upper quartile, 17. From the right side of the box, we draw a whisker to the highest value, 21. From the left side of the box, we draw a whisker to the lowest value, 6.
