Question

Gabe is the human resources manager for the Advanced Scientific Research Lab. He has to record
the heights (in centimeters) and weights (in pounds) for each of the scientists in the lab.

Height distribution (cm): 178, 163, 174, 186, 154, 167, 167, 181, 159, 165, 177, 191, 158
Weight distribution (lbs): 157, 163, 190, 187, 183, 173, 184, 189, 193, 192, 177, 173, 168

Answer 1

What are the medians for the height and weight distribution, respectively?
A. 170, 179
B. 183, 167
C. 167, 183
D. 179, 170
E. 165, 175

Answer 2

One minute please

Answer 3

Height is 167, so I'm guessing the weight will be 183 looking at the available answers

Answer 4

Would you like me to still find the median of weight?

Answer 5

Nope that's fine... thank you!

Answer 6

I checked it anyways and I assumed correctly, the median is 183

Answer 7

There's a second part of the question, if you could answer it :/
What is the shape of the height and weight distribution?

A.The height and weight distribution exhibit a negative and a positive skew, respectively.
B. Both the height and weight distribution exhibit a positive skew.
C. Both the height and weight distribution exhibit a negative skew.
D. Both the height and weight distribution are symmetric about the mean.
E. The height and weight distribution exhibit a positive and a negative skew, respectively.

Answer 8

Involving the graph and thanks!

Answer 9

I believe part two is E.
