4b 1. a) Interval: 1.0 – 1.5 hours b) frequency polygon graph: c) The data is distributed with most grouped between 1 to 3 hours. This means that Jerry spends an average of 1 to 3 hours per day using the internet to help with his homework. 2. a) 7 intervals of 1 hour b) frequency table: c) histogram: d) The data is distributed with most grouped between 1 to 3 hours. This means that for most of the month Tim spends 2/3 of his shifts working between of 1 to 4 hours at the bakery and about 1/3 of his shifts are longer than 4 hours. 3. a) 7 intervals of 1 hour b) frequency table: c) histogram: 3. d) Serena works an average of 2 to 5 hours per shift in February at her father‟s convenience store and very few shifts over 5 hours. 4. a) Intervals of 10% b) NO he is not correct because the data was initially grouped, so he can only determine from the graph that most of the data lies between 71 – 80. This means that most of Tony‟s class scored between 71% - 80% . 5. D 4c 1. a) mean = 782 standard deviation = 22.7 b) mean = 66 standard deviation = 7.2. 2. 224, = 8.2

3. Mean = 7.5 C median = 4.8 C mode = 4.8 C range = 14.8 C (16.8 – 2.0) standard deviation = 4.9 C 4. a) mean = 73.6 standard deviation = 18.3 b) This means that Jarome scored an average of 73.6 goals per season with an approximate 18.3 point spread between the data. c) without the 2 lowest scores the standard deviation is lower which means Jarome‟s point production was more consistent which also makes his mean point production higher. 5. Mean = 3.6 standard deviation = 0.8 6. a) Billy is the better player because he has the higher average (mean). b) Mark is more consistent because he has a lower standard deviation. 7. Mean = 2.0 median = 2 mode = 1 standard deviation = 1.6 8. Class A performed better because it has a lower standard deviation which indicates that the test scores were more consistent and closer to the mean. 9. i) mean = 72.1 years standard deviation = 7.4 years ii) a) 64.7 b) 79.5 c) 57.3 d) 86.9 iii) 21 / 32 = 66% iv) 30 / 32 = 94%

4d 1. i) the total area under the curve is equal to 1; ii) the curve extends infinitely to the left and right; iii) the curve is symmetrical about the mean, where half of the data (50%) is below the mean and half of the data (50%) is above the mean; iv) all the data is represented by the area under the curve; and v) the mean, median and mode are the same value. 2. Mean = 0 and Standard Deviation = 1 3. i) Z-scores are standardized values calculated from normally distributed data that indicate the number of standard deviations that a data value is above or below the mean, where comparatively, the mean is 0 and the standard deviation is 1; ii) A positive z-score indicates that a data point is above the mean and a negative z-score indicates that a data point is below the mean; iii) Z-scores are used to compare different sets of data that do not have the same mean and / or standard deviation. 4. a) z = 1.97, b) z=2.32, c) z= – 0.45, d) z= – 1.67 5. a) Mean = 21.92 and Standard Deviation = 5.06 b) z-score for the lowest (11) = – 2.16 And, z-score for the hightest (30) = 1.60 6.
