The National Sporting Goods Association (NSGA) conducted a survey of the ages of individuals that purchased skateboarding footwear. The ages of this survey are summarized in the following relative frequency distribution. Assume the survey was based on a sample of 200 individuals. |
Age of User | Percent |
Under 14 years old | 23 |
14 to 17 years old | 40 |
18 to 24 years old | 18 |
25 to 34 years old | 7 |
35 to 44 years old | 7 |
45 to 64 years old | 5 |
Calculate the mean and the standard deviation of the age of individuals that purchased skateboarding shoes. Use 10 as the midpoint of the first class. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) |

Consider a sample with 10 observations of 11, –3, 8, 8, 10, 1, –2, 13, 8, and –4. Use z-scores to determine if there are any outliers in the data; assume a bell-shaped distribution. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign.) The z-score for the smallest observation The z-score for the largest observation There are outliers or no outliers in the data. The historical returns on a portfolio had...

Question 7 A survey was conducted to investigate whether there is an association between a person's age and their thoughts on what a state senate should do about state parks. Participants selected from "leave state parks the way they are," "increase funding to state parks," or "completely overhaul state parks," and their age was categorized as under 30 years old, between 30 and 50 years old, and over 50 years old. The hypothesis test statistic was calculated to be 15.01....
