Problem Set 3A

The document presents a frequency distribution table and exam scores for 108 college students. It finds the mean score to be 155.75, the median to fall within the 108-116 class interval, and the mode to be 117. It also compares 3 data sets with the same mean and range but different variations. Data set 3 has the highest variation with all values either well below or above the mean, while data set 2 has the lowest.

A. The frequency distribution table below represent the exam scores for 108 randomly selected
college students. Find the mean, median, and mode.

Class Intervals Frequency

B. The three sets below have the same mean and range. Compare the variations.
Data set 1 5 7 9 11 13 15 17
Data set 2 5 6 7 11 15 16 17
Data set 3 5 5 5 11 17 17 17

s2 = Σx2 – (Σx)2

s = √ Σ (x – x ) 2
n–1

draft set 1:

Σx = 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 = 77
Σx2 = 52 + 72 + 92 + 112 + 132 + 152 + 172 = 959

s2 = 959 – (77)2
7_
= 18.66

s = √ 18.66 = 4.31
draft set 2

Σx = 5 + 6 + 7 + 11 + 15 + 16 + 17 = 75
Σx2 = 52 + 62 + 72 + 112 + 152 + 162 + 172 = 1,001

s2 = 1,001 – (75)2
7_

6

s = √ 32.905 = 5.73

draft set 3

Σx = 5 + 5 + 5 + 11 + 17 + 17 + 17 = 77
Σx2 = 52 + 52 + 52 + 112 + 172 + 172 + 172 = 1,063

s2 = 1,063 – (77)2
7_
= 36
6

s = √ 36 =6

The variation is not the same since each data set has data values that have varying from the
mean.
