We have drawn a smooth curve that represents a distribution,

a. Identify the shape of the distirbution with regard to modality.

b. Identify the shape of the distribution with regard to symmetry (or non symmetry)

c . If the distribution is unimodal and non symmetric, classify it as either right skewed or left skewed.

Top 10 Green Cars. The following table presents information on the Kelley Blue Book's "10 Best Green Cars of 2013." Note that mpg and mpge are abbreviations for miles per gallon and miles per gallon equivalent, respectively. Identify the type of data provided by the information in each column of the table. [SOURCE: "10 Best Green Cars of 2013." Published by the Kelley Blue

The Court's Burrow. The subterranean color (Spalacopus cyan) is a social rodent that lives in large colonies in underground burrows that can reach lengths of up to 600 meters. Zoologists S. Begall and M. Gallardo studied the characteristics of the burrow systems of the subterranean color in central Chile and published their findings in the Journal of Zoology, Landen (Vol. 251, pp. 53-60). A sample of 51 burrows, whose depths were measured in centimeters, yielded the following frequency histogram.

Number of Cars. The number of automobiles per family

In this case, decide which type of grouping (single-value, limit or cutpoint is probably the best.

For instance, consider the grouped days-to-maturity data given in Table 2.10(b) on page 57.

From that table, we see that the cumulative frequency of investments with a maturity period of less than 50day is 4(3+1)and, therefore, the cumulative relative frequency is0.1(4/40).

Table 2.14shows all cumulative information for the days-to-maturity data.

Cumulative information for days-to-maturity data.

a. Round each observation to the nearest year and then construct a stem-and-leaf diagram of the rounded data.

b. Truncate each observation by dropping the decimal part, and then construct a stem-and-leaf diagram of the truncated data.

c. Compare the stem-and-leaf diagrams that you obtained in parts (a) and (b).
