SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question. Provide an appropriate response.
1) One purpose of displaying data graphically is to provide clues about trends. The given values are weights (ounces) of steaks listed on a restaurant menu as “20 ounce porterhouse” steaks. The weights are supposed to be 21 ounces because they supposedly lose an ounce when cooked. Create a frequency distribution with 5 classes. Based on your distribution, comment on the
advertised “20 ounce” steaks.
17 20 21 18 20 20 20 18 19 19 20 19 21 20 18 20 20 19 18 19

Answers will vary. Yet, the focus is as follows. The class width is 1 based on a range of 4 to accommodate 5 classes. The accompanying frequency distribution shows only two steaks satisfying the description. The other 18 steaks weigh under 21 ounces. Therefore, the ad is incorrect most of the time.

2) We want to compare two different groups of students, students taking Composition 1 in a
traditional lecture format and students taking Composition 1 in a distance learning format. We know that the mean score on the research paper is 85 for both groups. What additional information would be provided by knowing the standard deviation?

Answers will vary. However, the main concept is that the standard deviation tells us whether the scores are clustered about the mean or spread farther apart.

6 15 3 36 25 18 12 18 5 30
