Gabriel R. Panganiban Bs Mls 2-Ya-1 Course 3 Unit Task

The document provides examples to calculate measures of central tendency, variability, and percentiles from data sets. For a class of 20 students' favorite subjects, it calculates the mean as 2.83, median as 2.5, and mode as 2. It then analyzes sleep hours of 100 college freshmen, finding the mean as 16.67 hours, median as 14.5 hours, and mode as non-modal. It also computes the standard deviation, variance, coefficient of variation, and range. Finally, it examines test scores of 12 students and finds the 80th percentile as 87, the 5th percentile score as 77, the first quartile as 65, and that the score of 82 has a percentile rank of 58.

GABRIEL R.

PANGANIBAN BS MLS 2-YA-1 COURSE 3 UNIT TASK

1. Suppose a class of 20 students were asked their favorite subject a total of 17 students
responded as shown in the following table.

                  a. Which measure of central tendency should we use here?

Median

                  b. What would be the mean, median and mode?

Subject Math English Science Music Arts History


Number 5 3 4 1 2 2
Arranged in
ascending 1 2 2 3 4 5
order

Mean = (5 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 2) / (6) Median = (2 + 3) / (2) Mode: 2


= 17 / 6 = 2.5
= 2.83

2. Sleep habits of College freshmen were investigated. Below are the data gathered on the number
of hours slept per night during weekdays for the span of the whole semester for 100 freshmen:

Hours 5 6 7 8 9 10 Total
Students 13 16 28 25 10 8 100

Compute for the Mean, Median, Mode, Sample Standard Deviation, Sample Variance, Coefficient of
Variation and Range

Hours Students (x) x 𝒙 − 𝒙ഥ (𝒙 − 𝒙ഥ)𝟐


10 8 16.67 -8.67 75.17
9 10 16.67 -6.67 44.49
5 13 16.67 -3.67 13.47
6 16 16.67 -0.67 0.45
8 25 16.67 8.33 69.39
7 28 16.67 11.33 128.37
Total = 100 Total = 331.34

Mean = (8 + 10 +13 + 16 + 25 + 28) / (6) Median = (13 + 16) / (2) Mode: Non-modal
= 16.67 = 14.5
Range = 28 – 8 Sample Variance (s2) Sample Standard Deviation
= 20 = (331.34) / (6 - 1) (s)
= 66.27 = √ 66.27
= 8.14

Coefficient of Variation
= (8.14 / 16.67) (100)
= 48.83%

3. 12 students took a test in a Statistical class, below are the summary of the test scores:

                 70, 77, 65, 56, 99, 62, 79, 73, 85, 87, 92, 82

Find the value of Find D5 Find Q1 Find the percentile rank for the score
80th percentile 82 and interpret.

Pk = (80 / 100) (12) D5 = (5 / 10) (12) Q1 = (1 /4) (12) Percentile Rank of 82 = (7 / 12) (100)
= 9.6 ≈ 10 =6 =3 = 58.3 %
P80 = 87 D5 = 77 Q1 = 65 58.3% of the values are less than 82.
