Answer:
Explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data provided is for the number of times each family member verbally assaults another person throughout the first 24 hours.
Use Minitab to compute the descriptive statistics.
Go to Stat → Basic Statistics → Display Basic Statistics
A dialog box will open.
Select the variable.
Select 'Statistics'.
Another dialog box will open.
Select the statistics required.
Press OK.
Select "Graphs'.
Select Histogram.
Press OK
The output is attached below.
(1)
The mean of the data is, Mean = 10.
(2)
The median of the data is, Median = 8.50.
(3)
The mode of the data is, Mode = 5.
(4)
The inequality statement for the mean, median and mode is:
Mean > Median > Mode
A distribution is known as to be skewed to the right, or positively skewed, when maximum of the data are collected on the left of the histogram of the distribution.
Also if the Mean > Median > Mode then the distribution is skewed to the right.
For a skewed distribution the best of central tendency is the median.
So, the measure of central tendency that is most appropriate for this dataset is, Median = 8.50.
(5)
The range of the data set is:
Range = Maximum - Minimum
= 19 - 4
= 15
Thus, the range is 15.
(6)
The population of interest is the number of times the family members verbally assaults another person throughout the first 24 hours.
(7-10)
Consider the Minitab output.
The standard deviation of the data set is, SD = 5.60.
