When the population distribution is normal, the statistic median {|X1 − X tilde|, . . . , |Xn − X tilde|}/0.6745 can be used to estimate σ. This estimator is more resistant to the effects of outliers (observations far from the bulk of the data) than is the sample standard deviation. Compute both the corresponding point estimate and s for the data below. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)25.01, 25.87, 26.34, 26.51, 26.75, 27.24, 27.40, 27.63, 27.83, 27.90, 28.08, 28.13, 28.37, 28.58, 28.59, 28.96, 29.20, 29.22, 29.38, 30.88

The corresponding point estimate is 0.882.

The sample standard deviation is 1.373.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data set is:

S = {25.01, 25.87, 26.34, 26.51, 26.75, 27.24, 27.40, 27.63, 27.83, 27.90, 28.08, 28.13, 28.37, 28.58, 28.59, 28.96, 29.20, 29.22, 29.38, 30.88}

Compute the mean as follows:

Subtract the mean from each value and take the modulus of those values.

The new data set is:

S₁ = {2.8835, 2.0235, 1.5535, 1.3835, 1.1435, 0.6535, 0.4935, 0.2635, 0.0635, 0.0065, 0.1865, 0.2365, 0.4765, 0.6865, 0.6965, 1.0665, 1.3065, 1.3265, 1.4865, 2.9865}

Arrange these values in ascending order as follows:

S₂ = {0.0065 , 0.0635 , 0.1865 , 0.2365 , 0.2635 , 0.4765 , 0.4935 , 0.6535 , 0.6865 , 0.6965 , 1.0665 , 1.1435 , 1.3065 , 1.3265 , 1.3835 , 1.4865 , 1.5535 , 2.0235 , 2.8835 , 2.9865}

There are 20 observations in the data set.

The median value for an even set of values is the mean of the middle two values.

In this case the median will be the mean of the 10th and 11th observations.

Thus, the corresponding point estimate is 0.882.

Compute the standard deviation as follows:

In set S₁ we computed the absolute mean deviations.

Now take the square of these values and divide by (n - 1) to compute the sample variance:

Compute the sample standard deviation as follows:

Thus, the sample standard deviation is 1.373.

the clues that signal the reader should change tone are the punctuation marks, the grammatical signs. for example, the quotation marks at the beginning of something someone else said literally or the exclamation marks.

the tone of the first line of dialogue until "gettysburg" is a kind tone, a tone of advise. the narrator is trying to the other person in doing something he or she obviously is finding hard to do by giving a piece of advise and bringing up a memory of a successful similar case.

the clue that the reader understand how to read the word "bang" is the exclamation mark. it gives the word a surprise tone, a strong accent.

the best tone for reading the word "bang" is an exciting tone, a surprise one, even a loud one.

the words that should be read with a formal tone are the ones that give factual information. the sentence: mister lincoln couldn't think of anything to say at the gettysburg" gives information about an event and it needs to be read formally, also, when the narrator wants to transmit calmness, a formal and slow tone is needed, because people also transmit messages with the vibrations of our voices and tones.
