PARTA– (5 X2=10 marks)
1. What is percentile rank? Un CO3
In statistics, the percentile rank (PR) of a given score is the percentage of scores
in its frequency distribution that are less than that score.
2. Give the steps for finding the mean. Ap CO3

1. Add up all the values in the data set.


2. Divide this number by the number of values.

3. Distinguish between histogram and bar graph. Un CO4


The bar graph is the graphical representation of
categorical data. A histogram is the graphical
representation of quantitative data. bar graph - There
is equal space between each pair of consecutive
bars. histogram - There is no space between the
consecutive bars.
4. Define degrees of freedom. R CO4
Degrees of freedom refers to the maximum number
of logically independent values, which are values that
have the freedom to vary, in the data sample.
Degrees of freedom is calculated by subtracting one
from the number of items within the data sample.
5. Give the instructions to find IQR and find the IQR for R CO4
1,3,4,1,0,2,5,8,0,2,3,4,7,11,0,2,3,4
 Step 1: Put the numbers in order.
1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, 19, 27.
 Step 2: Find the median.
1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, 19, 27.
 Step 3: Place parentheses around the numbers above and below the
median.
Not necessary statistically, but it makes Q1 and Q3 easier to spot.
(1, 2, 5, 6, 7), 9, (12, 15, 18, 19, 27).
 Step 4: Find Q1 and Q3
Think of Q1 as a median in the lower half of the data and think of Q3 as a
median for the upper half of data.
(1, 2, 5, 6, 7),  9, ( 12, 15, 18, 19, 27). Q1 = 5 and Q3 = 18.
 Step 5: Subtract Q1 from Q3 to find the interquartile range.
18 – 5 = 13.

PARTB– (2 X13 =26marks)


6.a Explain about describing data with tables for quantitative data. Ap CO1

Frequency Tables

All of the graphical methods shown in this section are derived


from frequency tables. Table 1 shows a frequency table for the
results of the iMac study; it shows the frequencies of the various
response categories. It also shows the relative frequencies,
which are the proportion of responses in each category. For
example, the relative frequency for “none” of 0.17 = 85/500.

Table 1. Frequency Table for the iMac Data.


Below is a table (Table 2) showing a hypothetical distribution of
scores on the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale for a sample of 40
college students. The Rosenburg Self-Esteem Scale is one way
to operationalize (define) self-esteem in a quantitative way. 
Participants rate each of the 10-items from strongly disagree to
strongly agree.  All items are then scored yielding an overall self-
esteem score that would be a numerical value to represent one’s
self-esteem.

Column one lists the values of the variable – the possible scores
on the Rosenberg scale
Column two lists the frequency of each score

Table 2. Frequency Table for Rosenburg Self-Esteem Scale


Scores.

Table 2 shows that there were three students who had self-
esteem scores of 24, five who had self-esteem scores of 23, and
so on. From a frequency table like this, one can quickly see
several important aspects of a distribution, including the range of
scores (from 15 to 24), the most and least common scores (22
and 17, respectively), and any extreme scores that stand out
from the rest.

8.a Explain in detail about normal curve, standard normal curve and z score Un CO2
A z-score is a measure of position that Z-score
indicates the number of standard
deviations a data value lies from the
Calculation:
mean. It is the horizontal scale of
a standard normal distribution.

The z-score is positive if the value lies


above the mean, and negative if it lies
• value being
below the mean. To calculate a z-score, examined x
the population mean and standard • population mean μ
deviation must be known. • population standard
    deviation σ

 Round z-scores to
two
decimal places.

Remember that z-scores tell us how far a value is from the


mean. When you "standardize" a variable, its mean becomes
zero and its standard deviation becomes one.
