1.The Young Republicans Club asked its members how many hours they had worked during the previous week in part-time jobs. The following data lists the number of hours spent working during the previous week.

6 6 6 4 6 6 9 8 7 3 7 8
6 7 6 7 7 6 6 8 6 7 8 4

a.From these data complete the frequency table below. Round the relative frequencies to three decimal places.
(References: example 1 and 2 page 41, end of section exercises 27, 28 page 51) (7 points)

b.Using Excel construct a frequency histogram for the frequency table in part a. Use the midpoint as the horizontal axis and frequency [f] as the vertical axis. Copy the graph from Excel into the project Word document.
(References: example 3 page 44, end of section exercises 29 - 32 page 52) (3 points)

c. Using Excel construct a relative frequency histogram for the frequency table in part a. Use the midpoint as the horizontal axis and frequency [f] as the vertical axis. Copy the graph from Excel into the project Word document. (References: example 5 page 46, end of section exercises 33 - 36 page 52 - 53) (3 points)

2. A research team studied the ages of patients who had heart attacks caused by smoking. The ages of 34 patients who suffered a heart attack are reported below.

29 30 36 41 45 50 57 61 28 50 66 58
60 38 36 47 40 32 58 46 61 40 55 32
61 56 45 46 62 66 38 40 40 27

Construct a Stem-and-Leaf Plot from these data with Key: 5 | 7 = 57.

3.A new DVD movie was rated by 900 reviewers. The follow data summarizes those ratings.

Rating Frequency Relative Frequency
Excellent 200
Good 360
Fair 290
Poor 50

Complete the table for Relative Frequency. Using Excel, construct a pie chart using the relative frequency as the percent for each category. Round the relative frequencies to 3 decimal places. The wedges should be labeled with a descriptive label and a numeric label. Copy the graph from Excel into the project Word document.

5.IQ scores for seniors age 60 - 80 have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 25. Use the Empirical Rule to find the percentage of seniors age 60 - 80 with IQ scores between 75 and 125.
(References: example 7 page 88, end of section exercises 29 - 34 page 95 - 96) (6 points) Empirical Rule is found on page 88.
