A. We will attempt to answer the question "What is the average height of RCCC male students?" using data we collected the first week of this semester. Be sure to give explanations in context and include units when appropriate. Describe the population of interest?
A sample of(state the number) RCCC male students was taken. We found the sample mean(symbol) to be Interpretation: In the sample of male RCCC students, the"mean") height was approximatelyinches.
The median isInterpretation (use the one for mean as a guide):
The mode isInterpretation (use the one for mean as a guide):
b. We know the measures of central tendency don't tell us the whole story, so we then investigated the measures of variation as well. We found that the heights had a range ofwith a standard deviation(symbol) of(2 decimal places) and a variance(symbol) of (2 decimal places).
Height (inches) Note: There are 31 male heights.
