After grading these exams, she created a histogram illustrating the distribution of exam scores for the 70 students in the class. Each of the bars in this histogram includes only the left endpoint of the interval, except for the bar representing scores between 90 and 100 points, which also includes the right endpoint. What percentage of students scored between 60 and 80 points on the exam? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent. Number of students who scored at least 80 points = students Percentage of students who scored between 60 and 80 points = %arrow_forwardOn a multiple choice test with 10 questions, each question has four possible answers, one of which is correct.

- Two samples are given. Find each sample's a) standard deviation and b) coefficient of variation. Then decide c) which sample has the higher dispersion, and d) which sample has the higher relative dispersion. A: 3, 7, 9, 7, 5 B: 10, 9, 4, 8, 3, 11, 7 D a) What are the sample standard deviations? SA (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest hundredth as needed.) Sg = (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest hundredth as needed.)arrow_forwardSuppose that 10 students have taken an exam and that the mean and median scores are both 60. (Since 10 is an even number you can assume that two scores in the middle are both 60.) Two more students take it and one scores 70 and the other scores 26. If these students are now included, what is the new mean? What is the new median?arrow_forwardConsider the data set A (2,5,5,5,6,8) A) find the mode, median and mean.
