In the general population, using a scale of 1-10 with higher values indicating more pain, the average pain rating for patients with toothaches is 6.8. A sample of 30 patients that show high levels of depression have an average pain rating of 7.1 (variance 0.8). What should the dentist determine? 1. Calculate the estimated standard error.

- Histograms of random sample data are often used as an indication of the shape of the underlying population distribution. The histograms on the next page are based on random samples of size 30,50 and 100 from the same population. a. Using the midpoint labels of the three histograms, what would you say about the estimated range of population data from smallest to largest? Does the bulk of the data seem to be between 8 and 12 all in three histograms? b. The population distribution from which the samples were drawn is symmetric and mound shaped, with the top of the mound at 10,95% of the data between 8 and 12, and 99.7% of data between 7 and 13. How well does each histogram reflect these characteristics?arrow_forwardFind the mean, the median, and all modes for the data in the given frequency distribution.
