Using this data set and RStudio answer the five following questions
- Determine the mean, the standard deviation, the variance, and the five-number summary.
- Using the fence rule, determine if data set has any outliers.
- Draw a histogram. Properly name the graph and the axes.
- Draw a boxplot (horizontal).
- Construct a qqplot and a qqline and determine if this data set is approximately normal.
- To experimentally verify the central limit theorem, take 1000 random samples of size from a population that is distributed exponentially with . To this end, you must show
- The histogram of the distribution is approximately normal.
HINT: Use the following session commands:
> xbar <- rep(0,1000)
> for(i in 1:1000){xbar[i]=mean(rexp(33, 3))}
> hist(xbar, prob = TRUE)
- Its expected value is .
HINT: Use
> mean(xbar)
What is the expected value of an exponential distribution?
- Its variance is .
HINT: Use
> sd(xbar)
What is the standard deviation of an exponential distribution?
