(b) (i) Create boxplots for these two data sets (either drawn by hand or as a printout from Dataplotter or another suitable computer package). Include all the relevant information required for drawing boxplots The summary values can be displayed on the boxplots themselves or in a table to the side of the chart, as they appear in Dataplotter. (ii) Use the boxplot for radio station B to say whether the data are symmetric or skewed. If the data are skewed, then state whether they are skewed to the left or skewed to the right. What does this tell you about the spread of the data for radio station B? (iii) The advertising company tries to summarise what the boxplot for radio station A is saying. Are the following statements true or false? In each case justify your answer. (1) About one-quarter of the reporting periods for radio station A had less than 10 550 000 listeners. (2) About three-quarters of the reporting periods for radio station A had more than 10 900 000 listeners.
In the Focus Problem at the beginning of this chapter, a study was described comparing the hatch ratios of wood duck nesting boxes. Group I nesting boxes were well separated from each other and well hidden by available brush. There were a total of 489 eggs in group I boxes, of which a field count showed about 272 hatched. Group II nesting boxes were placed in highly visible locations and grouped closely together. There were a total of 821 eggs in group II boxes, of which a field count showed about 262 hatched. (a) Find a point estimate p̂1 for p1, the proportion of eggs that hatch in group I nest box placements. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) p̂1 = Find a 95% confidence interval for p1.
