1.The stemplot below displays midterm exam scores for the 34 students taking a Calculus course. The highest possible test score was 100. The teacher declared that an exam grade of 65 or higher was good enough for a grade of “C” or better. Reference: Ref 1-5 This stemplot is most similar to A.reporting the five-point summary for the data, with the mean. B.a histogram with class intervals 30 score < 40, 40 score < 50, etc. C.a time plot of the data with the observations taken in increasing order. D.a boxplot of the data. 2The exam scores (out of 100 points) for all students taking an introductory Statistics course are used to construct the following boxplot. Reference: Ref 2-3 About 25% of the students scores exceeded A.75. B.85. C.60. D.50. 3.A locomotive’s “adhesion” is the locomotive’s pulling force as a multiple of its weight. This is an important performance measure of a locomotive. A diesel locomotive model has adhesion which varies in actual use according to a Normal distribution with mean 0.37 and standard deviation 0.04. The first quartile of the distribution of adhesion used is A.0.29. B.0.34. C.0.25. D.0.04. 4.The histogram below shows the average property damage in millions of dollars caused by tornadoes over a 50-year period in each of the states and Puerto Rico.

B.classify the value 1.2 as an outlier, because it is more than 1.5 × IQR’s below the first quartile. C.not classify the value 1.2 as an outlier because it is not more than 1.5 × IQR’s below the first quartile. D.classify the value 1.2 as an outlier because it is more than 1.5 × IQR’s below the mean. 9.A sample was taken of the salaries of 20 employees of a large company. The following is a boxplot of the salaries (in thousands of dollars) for this year. Reference: Ref 2-5 Based on this boxplot, the five-number summary (in thousands of dollars) is A.28, 39, 48, 60.5, 77. B.28, 41, 51, 60.5, 77. C.28, 39, 51, 58, 77. D.28, 41, 48, 58, 77. 10.Does exposure to classical music (through instrument lessons or concert attendance) improve children’s scholastic performance?
