Expert Solution
Step 1

Note: Since you have asked multiple questions, we still solve the first question for you. If you want any specific question to be solved then please specify the question number or post only that question.

Mean and Standard Deviation:

They are the basic statistical summary measure used to the understand dataset better. Mean is the ratio of the sum of the observation to the total number of observations. Whereas the Standard Deviation is the square root of the ratio of the sum of the square of the difference between each observation and the mean to the total number of observations -1.

Box-Whiskers Chart:

A box plot is a graphical representation that displays the variation in a set of data. The summary of data value will be shown in the box-plot and also the outliers and leverage points can be seen in the graph.

Histogram:

It a graphical representation of the distribution of the data. It is a bar graph with different heights but same width. As the height of bar increases indicates that more data is fallen in that range.
