The sample of twelve people produced the following number of rounds played: 13 32 12 9 16 17 16 12 18 11 12 15 Find: A) Compute the Mean, median, mode, range, lower quartile, upper quartile, variance and standard deviation B) Construct a Box and whisker plot C) Indicate whether the data are skewed or symmetrical D) Note that one person in the sample played 32 rounds. What effect, if any, does this large value have on each of the central measurements of location (mean, median, mode) ? E) Given this sample data, suppose the manager wishes to give discounts to golfers in the upper quartile. What should the minimum number of rounds played be to received a discount?
