A researcher wants to know if the time spent in prison for a particular type of crime was the same for men and women. A random sample of men and women were each asked to give the length of sentence received. The data, in years, are listed to the right. Use the Wilcoxon rank sum test to find R, the sum of the ranks for the smaller sample, to test the claim that there is no difference in the sentence received by each gender.

A marketing research group found that 25% of the 200 shoppers, it recently interviewed at a certain shopping center, resided more than 12 miles from the center. Assume that a random sample was taken, construct a 95% C.I. for the actual; percentage of shoppers who live more than 15 miles from that center.
Is it possible to make a X-Bar and R control chart without a data set? I'm told to solve it by hand, but am unsure of how to do that with only the summation notation
