Task: Mid-term assignment

You are asked to answer all the questions in the proposed case.

This is an individual task. All students must submit their own file in the midterm evaluation submission point.

Task

In a sample of 30 individuals of the total population living in a city, we got the following info about their incomes:

- People with no incomes : 1

- People getting 500 €/month: 2

- People getting 1000 €/month: 3

- People getting 1500 €/month: 5

- People getting 2000 €/month: 8

- People getting 2500 €/month: 5

- People getting 3000 €/month: 3

- People getting 3500 €/month: 2

- People getting 4000 €/month: 1 


Ex. 1. Find the Arithmetic Mean (average) and the Geometric Mean

Ex. 2. Find the Median and the Mode

Ex. 3. Find the Deviation of each one of the values, and find the result of the total addition of them all

Ex. 4. Find the Variance and the Standard Deviation

Ex. 5. Draw a columns graph so that we can see the distribution of the above data according to the frequency

Ex. 6. According to that sample (let’s assume it is representative of the population and that it is a normal distribution), if you ask an individual randomly, what is the probability that he/she gets a monthly income between 1062€ and 2938€?

Ex. 7. According to that sample (let’s assume it is representative of the population and that it is a normal distribution), if you ask an individual randomly, what is the probability that he/she gets a monthly income lower than 1062€?
