You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question.
Suppose that a recent issue of a magazine reported that the average weekly earnings for workers who have not received a high school diploma is $494.

Data providing the weekly pay for a sample of 50 workers are available in the file named WeeklyHSGradPay. These data are consistent with the findings reported in the article.
