Short Answer

Expert verified

Part (a) 9

Part (b) 607

Part (c) 67.4

Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1. Given information.

The provided data set is:

58, 77, 77, 65, 80, 75, 63, 59, 53

02

Part (a) Step 2. The value of n 

The given collection is: 58, 77, 77, 65, 80, 75, 63, 59, 53

The number of samples is 9

Then

n=9

As a result, the value of n is 9.

03

Part (b) Step 1. Given information.

The provided data set is:

58, 77, 77, 65, 80, 75, 63, 59, 53

04

Part (b) Step 2. The value of ∑xi

The value of ∑xiis calculated as follows:

∑xi=58+77+77+65+80+75+63+59+53∑xi=607

As a result, the value of ∑xiis 607

05

Part (c) Step 1. Given information.

The provided data set is:

58, 77, 77, 65, 80, 75, 63, 59, 53

06

Part (c) Step 2 The sample average.

Mean is expressed as follows:

x¯=∑xn

The mean of the given data set is computed as follows:

x¯=6079x¯=67.4

As a result, the sample mean days is 67.4.

The Etruscans. Anthropologists are still trying to unravel the mystery of the origins of the Etruscan empire, a highly advanced Italic civilization formed around the eighth century B.C. in central Italy. Were they native to the Italian peninsula or, as many aspects of their civilization suggest, did they migrate from the East by land or sea? The maximum head breadth, in millimeters, of 70modern Italian male skulls and that of 84preserved Etruscan male skulls were analyzed to help researchers decide whether the Etruscans were native to Italy. The resulting data can be found on the WeissStats site. [SOURCE: N. Barnicot and D. Brothwell, "The Evaluation of Metrical Data in the Comparison of Ancient and Modern Bones." In Medical Biology and Etruscan Origins, G. Wolstenholme and C. O'Connor, cds., Littlc, Brown \& Co., 1959]
