- The data below refers to information about Peruvian Indians of the Andes Mountains. Create a table of the AGE and YEARS data. Each row gives the age of a Peruvian Indian, and how many years since they migrated from the mountains to the cities. Remember to leave enough rows at the top for your Name, Lab, Course-Section, and Date.

(2) Produce a list of Descriptive Statistics for each of the columns.
- Make a standard Stem-Leaf Diagram of YEARS (Using five stems). Type the results into the worksheet or a Word document, but do not use any built-in Excel function.
- Produce a Histogram for the AGE data with an Ogive . Use upper boundaries so that you have an interval of 5 years. Be sure to have the tick marks on the horizontal axis align with the points on the Ogive.
- Create a Scatter-Plot of the AGE s (Horizontal axis), and YEARS (Vertical axis).
Based upon the above results answer the following,
Questions about Central Tendencies:
- What is the Average AGE and the Median YEARS ? Why would you say it is better to use median for YEARS instead of the mean (average)?
- From the YEARS Stem-Leaf diagram what is the M od e ? (Give the class mark) Do you like Excel’s Mode better? (Explain) From the AGE Histogram what is the Mode ?
-
What is the
Mid-Range
for the
YEARS
data? Is it similar to the average and median
YEARS
values?
Questions about Dispersion: - What is the Range and Interquartile Range (use Ogive or Quartile function) of the AG E data?
-
What is the
Standard Deviation
for
AGE
?
Questions about Distribution: - Compute the two intervals: ( M ean – 1 SD ) to ( M ean + 1 SD ) and ( Mean – 2 SD ) to ( Mean + 2 SD ) for the AGE data. What percentage of the data would you expect for each of these ranges if this were a Normal distribution? From the Histogram , what percent of the 20 data values fall into each of these two ranges?
- Based upon the mean and median for the AGE data which way would you say the data is skewed (Right or Left)? Explain.
-
What clustering
pattern
does the
Scatter Plot
display? (Nearly Circular /Elongated Oval /Almost Linear – Pick closest match) As the age of the Peruvian increases, is there a trend in the years since migrated to city?
Questions about Position: - How many standard deviations is the AGE of 50 above the mean? (Use z-score )
- What is the 10th and 90th Percentile ? (Use Excel’s Percentile function)
