Document Summary
1) the following numbers xi, i = 1, . , 18, represent a sample of size n = 18 from a given population. 2. 1987 2. 5252 2. 8462 2. 2722 2. 2026 2. 0153: compute the sample median and fourth spread and nd eventual outliers. X = (2. 3529 + 2. 4186)/2 = 2. 3858 lf = 2. 1988 uf = 2. 6038 f s = 2. 6038 2. 1988 = 0. 4050. Since uf + 1. 5 f s = 3. 2113 and lf 1. 5 f s = 1. 59130 we have that 1. 5104 and. 18 (cid:19) = 0. 2263: draw a box plot of the data. 1: the number of cars that arrive at a control station every day is described by a random x! e 10. V (x) = 10: find the probability that exactly n cars arrive and exactly n of these cars need service. P (n cars arrive & n cars need service) = P (n cars arrive)p (n cars need service |n cars arrive)
