A student’s test grade of 75 represents the 65th percentile of the grades. What percent of students scored higher than 75?

Finding a Percentile In Exercises 33–36, use the data set, which represents the ages of 30 executives.

43 57 65 47 57 41 56 53 61 54

56 50 66 56 50 61 47 40 50 43

54 41 48 45 28 35 38 43 42 44

Which ages are above the 75th percentile?

Finding and Interpreting Percentiles In Exercises 37– 40, use the data set, which represents wait times (in minutes) for various services at a state’s Department of Motor Vehicles locations.

6 10 1 22 23 10 6 7 2 1 6 6 2 4 14 15 16 4

19 3 19 26 5 3 4 7 6 10 9 10 20 18 3 20 10 13

14 11 14 17 4 27 4 8 4 3 26 18 21 1 3 3 5 5

Which wait time represents the 50th percentile? How would you interpret this?

In Exercises 37– 40, use the data set, which represents the model 2020 vehicles with the highest fuel economies (in miles per gallon) in the most popular classes. (Source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)

36 30 30 45 31 113 113 33 33 33 52 141 56 117 58

118 50 26 23 23 27 48 22 22 22 121 41 105 35 35

Find the five-number summary of the data set.

About how many vehicles fall on or below the third quartile?

In Exercises 1 and 2, use the following wait times (minutes) at 10:00 AM for the Tower of Terror ride at Disney World (from Data Set 33 “Disney World Wait Times” in Appendix B).

Tower of Terror Wait Times

a. Find Q1, Q2 and Q3.

In Exercises 1–5, refer to the following list of numbers of years that deceased U.S. presidents, popes, and British monarchs lived after their inauguration, election, or coronation, respectively. (As of this writing, the last president is George H. W. Bush, the last pope is John Paul II, and the last British monarch is George VI.) Assume that the data are samples from larger populations.

Exploring the Data Include appropriate units in all answers.

d. Are there any obvious outliers?

Cloud Seeding The “Florida Area Cumulus Experiment” was conducted by using silver iodide to seed clouds with the objective of increasing rainfall. For the purposes of this exercise, let the daily amounts of rainfall be represented by units of rnfl. (The actual rainfall amounts are in or )

Find the value of the following statistics and include appropriate units based on rnfl as the unit of measurement.
