Mean
The mean for ungrouped data is obtained by dividing the
sum of all values by the number of values in the data set. Thus,
Mean for population data:   x

N
Mean for sample data: x

 x
n
where  x is the sum of all values; N is the population size; n

is the sample size;  is the population mean; and
x is the
sample mean.

Example 3-1
Table 3.1 lists the total cash donations (rounded to millions of
dollars) given by eight U.S. companies during the year 2010
(Source: Based on U.S. Internal Revenue Service data
analyzed by The Chronicle of Philanthropy and USA TODAY).

Table 3.1 Cash Donations in 2010 by Eight U.S.
Companies
Find the mean of cash donations made by these eight

companies.

Example 3-1: Solution

x
 x 1116
  139.5  $139.5million

Thus, these eight companies donated an average of $139.5 million in

2010 for charitable purposes.

Example 3-2
The following are the ages (in years) of all eight employees of a
small company:
53 32 61 27 39 44 49 57
Find the mean age of these employees.

The population mean is
  x 362
  45.25 years

Thus, the mean age of all eight employees of this company is

45.25 years, or 45 years and 3 months.

Example 3-3
Table 3.2 lists the total number of homes lost to foreclosure in
seven states during 2010.

Table 3.2 Number of Homes Foreclosed in 2010

Example 3-3
Note that the number of homes foreclosed in California is
very large compared to those in the other six states.
Hence, it is an outlier. Show how the inclusion of this outlier
affects the value of the mean.

 If we do not include the number of homes foreclosed in
California (the outlier), the mean of the number of
foreclosed homes in six states is

Median
 Definition
 The median is the value of the middle term in a data set that
has been ranked in increasing order.
 The calculation of the median consists of the following two

steps:
1. Rank the data set in increasing order.
2. Find the middle term. The value of this term is the median.

Example 3-4
Refer to the data on the number of homes foreclosed in seven
states given in Table 3.2 of Example 3.3. Those values are
listed below.
173,175 49,723 20,352 10,824 40,911 18,038 61,848
Find the median for these data.

First, we rank the given data in increasing order as follows:
10,824 18,038 20,352 40,911 49,723 61,848 173,175
Since there are seven homes in this data set and the middle
term is the fourth term,
Thus, the median number of homes foreclosed in these seven

states was 40,911 in 2010.

Example 3-5
 Table 3.3 gives the total compensations (in millions of
dollars) for the year 2010 of the 12 highest-paid CEOs of
U.S. companies.

Table 3.3 Total Compensations of 12 Highest-Paid
CEOs for the Year 2010
Find the median for
these data.

 First we rank the given total compensations of the 12 CESs as
follows:
 21.6 21.7 22.9 25.2 26.5 28.0 28.2 32.6 32.9 70.1 76.1 84.5
 There are 12 values in this data set. Because there are an

even number of values in the data set, the median is given by
the average of the two middle values.

 The two middle values are the sixth and seventh in the
arranged data, and these two values are 28.0 and 28.2.
28.0  28.2 56.2

Median    28.1  $28.1million
2 2
 Thus, the median for the 2010 compensations of these 12

CEOs is $28.1 million.

Median
The median gives the center of a histogram, with half the data
values to the left of the median and half to the right of the
median. The advantage of using the median as a measure of
central tendency is that it is not influenced by outliers.
Consequently, the median is preferred over the mean as a
measure of central tendency for data sets that contain
outliers.

Case Study 3-3 Education Pays

Mode
 Definition
 The mode is the value that occurs with the highest frequency
in a data set.

Example 3-6
 The following data give the speeds (in miles per hour) of
eight cars that were stopped on I-95 for speeding violations.
77 82 74 81 79 84 74 78
Find the mode.

 In this data set, 74 occurs twice and each of the remaining
values occurs only once. Because 74 occurs with the highest
frequency, it is the mode. Therefore,
Mode = 74 miles per hour

Mode
 A major shortcoming of the mode is that a data set may
have none or may have more than one mode, whereas it
will have only one mean and only one median.
 Unimodal: A data set with only one mode.
 Bimodal: A data set with two modes.
 Multimodal: A data set with more than two modes.

Example 3-7 (Data set with no mode)
 Last year’s incomes of five randomly selected families were
$76,150, $95,750, $124,985, $87,490, and $53,740.
 Find the mode.

 Because each value in this data set occurs only once, this data
set contains no mode.

Example 3-8 (Data set with two modes)
A small company has 12 employees. Their commuting times
(rounded to the nearest minute) from home to work are 23,
36, 12, 23, 47, 32, 8, 12, 26, 31, 18, and 28, respectively.
Find the mode for these data.

In the given data on the commuting times of the 12
employees, each of the values 12 and 23 occurs twice, and
each of the remaining values occurs only once. Therefore, that
data set has two modes: 12 and 23 minutes.

Example 3-9 (Data set with three modes)
The ages of 10 randomly selected students from a class are 21,
19, 27, 22, 29, 19, 25, 21, 22 and 30 years, respectively.
Find the mode.

This data set has three modes: 19, 21 and 22. Each of these
three values occurs with a (highest) frequency of 2.

Mode
One advantage of the mode is that it can be calculated for
both kinds of data - quantitative and qualitative - whereas the
mean and median can be calculated for only quantitative data.

Example 3-10
 The status of five students who are members of the student
senate at a college are senior, sophomore, senior, junior, and
senior, respectively. Find the mode.

 Because senior occurs more frequently than the other
categories, it is the mode for this data set. We cannot
calculate the mean and median for this data set.

Relationships Among the Mean, Median, and Mode
1. For a symmetric histogram and frequency distribution with
one peak (see Figure 3.2), the values of the mean,
median, and mode are identical, and they lie at the center
of the distribution.

Figure 3.2 Mean, median, and mode for a symmetric
histogram and frequency distribution curve.

2. For a histogram and a frequency distribution curve skewed
to the right (see Figure 3.3), the value of the mean is the
largest, that of the mode is the smallest, and the value of
the median lies between these two. (Notice that the mode
always occurs at the peak point.) The value of the mean is
the largest in this case because it is sensitive to outliers
that occur in the right tail. These outliers pull the mean to
the right.

Figure 3.3 Mean, median, and mode for a histogram and
frequency distribution curve skewed to the right.

3. If a histogram and a frequency distribution curve are
skewed to the left (see Figure 3.4), the value of the mean
is the smallest and that of the mode is the largest, with the
value of the median lying between these two. In this case,
the outliers in the left tail pull the mean to the left.

Figure 3.4 Mean, median, and mode for a histogram and
frequency distribution curve skewed to the left.

MEASURES OF DISPERSION FOR UNGROUPED
DATA
 Range
 Variance and Standard Deviation
 Population Parameters and Sample Statistics

Range
Finding the Range for Ungrouped Data
Range = Largest value – Smallest Value

Example 3-11
 Table 3.4 gives the total areas in square miles of the four
western South-Central states of the United States.
 Find the range for this data set.

Table 3.4

Range = Largest value – Smallest Value
= 267,277 – 49,651
= 217,626 square miles
Thus, the total areas of these four states are spread over a range of
217,626 square miles.

Range
Disadvantages
 The range, like the mean, has the disadvantage of being
influenced by outliers. Consequently, the range is not a good
measure of dispersion to use for a data set that contains
outliers.
 Its calculation is based on two values only: the largest and
the smallest. All other values in a data set are ignored when
calculating the range. Thus, the range is not a very
satisfactory measure of dispersion.

Variance and Standard Deviation
 The standard deviation is the most-used measure of
dispersion.
 The value of the standard deviation tells how closely the

values of a data set are clustered around the mean.
 In general, a lower value of the standard deviation for a data

set indicates that the values of that data set are spread over
a relatively smaller range around the mean.

 In contrast, a larger value of the standard deviation for a
data set indicates that the values of that data set are
spread over a relatively larger range around the mean.
 The standard deviation is obtained by taking the positive

square root of the variance.

 The variance calculated for population data is denoted by σ²
(read as sigma squared), and the variance calculated for
sample data is denoted by s².
 The standard deviation calculated for population data is

denoted by σ, and the standard deviation calculated for
sample data is denoted by s.
 Consequently, the standard deviation calculated for

population data is denoted by σ, and the standard deviation
calculated for sample data is denoted by s.

Example 3-12
Until about 2009, airline passengers were not charged for checked
baggage. Around 2009, however, many U.S. airlines started charging a
fee for bags. According to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, U.S.
airlines collected more than $3 billion in baggage fee revenue in 2010.
The following table lists the baggage fee revenues of six U.S. airlines
for the year 2010. (Note that Delta’s revenue reflects a merger with
Northwest. Also note that since then United and Continental have
merged; and American filed for bankruptcy and may merge with
another airline.)
Find the variance and standard deviation for these data.

Example 3-12

Let x denote the 2010 baggage fee revenue (in millions of
dollars) of an airline. The values of Σx and Σx2 are calculated
in Table 3.6.

Step 1. Calculate Σx
The sum of values in the first column of Table 3.6 gives
2,854.
Step 2. Find Σx2

The results of this step are shown in the second column of
Table 3.6, which is 1,746,098.

Step 3. Determine the variance

Thus, the standard deviation of the 2010 baggage fee revenues of
these six airlines is $278.76 million.

Two Observations
1. The values of the variance and the standard deviation are
never negative.
2. The measurement units of variance are always the square

of the measurement units of the original data.

Example 3-13
Following are the 2011 earnings (in thousands of dollars)
before taxes for all six employees of a small company.
88.50 108.40 65.50 52.50 79.80 54.60
Calculate the variance and standard deviation for these data.

Let x denote the 2011 earnings before taxes of an employee
of this company. The values of ∑x and ∑x2 are calculated in
Table 3.7.

Thus, the standard deviation of the 2011 earnings of all six

employees of this company is $19,721.

Warning
Note that ∑x2 is not the same as (∑x)2. The value of ∑x2 is
obtained by squaring the x values and then adding them. The
value of (∑x)2 is obtained by squaring the value of ∑x.

Population Parameters and Sample Statistics
 A numerical measure such as the mean, median, mode,
range, variance, or standard deviation calculated for a
population data set is called a population parameter, or
simply a parameter.
 A summary measure calculated for a sample data set is

called a sample statistic, or simply a statistic.

USE OF STANDARD DEVIATION
 Chebyshev’s Theorem
 Empirical Rule

Chebyshev’s Theorem
 Definition
 For any number k greater than 1, at least (1 – 1/k²) of the
data values lie within k standard deviations of the mean.

Figure 3.5 Chebyshev’s theorem.

Figure 3.6 Percentage of values within two standard
deviations of the mean for Chebyshev’s theorem.

Figure 3.7 Percentage of values within three standard
deviations of the mean for Chebyshev’s theorem.

Example 3-18
 The average systolic blood pressure for 4000 women who
were screened for high blood pressure was found to be 187
mm Hg with a standard deviation of 22. Using Chebyshev’s
theorem, find at least what percentage of women in this
group have a systolic blood pressure between 143 and 231
mm Hg.

 Let μ and σ be the mean and the standard deviation,
respectively, of the systolic blood pressures of these women.
 μ = 187 and σ = 22

 The value of k is obtained by dividing the distance between
the mean and each point by the standard deviation. Thus
 k = 44/22 = 2
1 1 1
1  2  1  2  1   1  .25  .75 or 75%
k ( 2) 4
 Hence, according to Chebyshev's theorem, at least 75% of the

women have systolic blood pressure between 143 and 231
mm Hg. This percentage is shown in Figure 3.8.

Figure 3.8 Percentage of women with systolic blood
pressure between 143 and 231.

Empirical Rule
 For a bell shaped distribution, approximately
1. 68% of the observations lie within one standard deviation
of the mean
2. 95% of the observations lie within two standard deviations
of the mean
3. 99.7% of the observations lie within three standard
deviations of the mean

Figure 3.9 Illustration of the empirical rule.

Example 3-19
 The age distribution of a sample of 5000 persons is bell-shaped
with a mean of 40 years and a standard deviation of 12 years.
Determine the approximate percentage of people who are 16
to 64 years old.

 From the given information, for this distribution,
 x = 40 and s = 12 years
 Each of the two points, 16 and 64, is 24 units away from the
mean.
 Because the area within two standard deviations of the mean

is approximately 95% for a bell-shaped curve, approximately
95% of the people in the sample are 16 to 64 years old.

Figure 3.10 Percentage of people who are 16 to 64 years
old.

MEASURES OF POSITION
 Quartiles and Interquartile Range
 Percentiles and Percentile Rank

Quartiles and Interquartile Range
 Definition
 Quartiles are three summary measures that divide a ranked
data set into four equal parts. The second quartile is the same
as the median of a data set. The first quartile is the value of
the middle term among the observations that are less than the
median, and the third quartile is the value of the middle term
among the observations that are greater than the median.

Figure 3.11 Quartiles.

Quartiles and Interquartile Range
 Calculating Interquartile Range
 The difference between the third and the first quartiles gives
the interquartile range; that is,
 IQR = Interquartile range = Q3 – Q1

Example 3-20
Table 3.3 in Example 3-5 gave the total compensations (in
millions of dollars) for the year 2010 of the 12 highest-paid
CEOs of U.S. companies. That table is reproduced on the next
slide.
(a) Find the values of the three quartiles. Where does the total
compensation of Michael D. White (CEO of DirecTV) fall in
relation to these quartiles?
(b) Find the interquartile range.

Example 3-20

(a)
By looking at the position of $32.9 million (total compensation of

Michael D. White, CEO of DirecTV), we can state that this value lies
in the bottom 75% of the 2010 total compensation. This value
falls between the second and third quartiles.

(b) The interquartile range is given by the difference between
the values of the third and first quartiles. Thus
IQR = Interquartile range = Q3 – Q1

= 51.5 – 24.05 = $27.45 million

Example 3-21
The following are the ages (in years) of nine employees of an
insurance company:
 47 28 39 51 33 37 59 24 33
(a) Find the values of the three quartiles. Where does the age of
28 years fall in relation to the ages of the employees?
(b) Find the interquartile range.

(a)
The age of 28 falls in the lowest 25% of the ages.

(b) The interquartile range is
IQR = Interquartile range = Q3 – Q1
= 49 – 30.5
= 18.5 years

Percentiles and Percentile Rank

 Calculating Percentiles
 The (approximate) value of the k th percentile, denoted by
Pk, is
 kn 
Pk  Value of the   th term in a ranked data set
 100 
 where k denotes the number of the percentile and n

represents the sample size.

Example 3-22
 Refer to the data on total compensations (in millions of
dollars) for the year 2010 of the 12 highest-paid CEOs of U.S.
companies given in Example 3-20. Find the value of the 60th
percentile. Give a brief interpretation of the 60th percentile.

 The data arranged in increasing order is as follows:
 21.6 21.7 22.9 25.2 26.5 28.0 28.2 32.6 32.9 70.1 76.1 84.5
 The position of the 60th percentile is
kn (60)(12)
  7.20th term  7th term
100 100

 The value of the 7.20th term can be approximated by the value
of the 7th term in the ranked data. Therefore,
 P60 = 60th percentile = 28.2 = $28.2 million
 Thus, approximately 60% of these 12 CEOs had 2010 total

compensations less than or equal to $28.2 million.

Finding Percentile Rank of a Value
Percentile rank of xi
Number of values less than xi
  100
Total number of values in the data set

Example 3-23
 Refer to the data on total compensations (in millions of
dollars) for the year 2010 of the 12 highest-paid CEOs of U.S.
companies given in Example 3-20. Find the percentile rank for
$26.5 million (2010 total compensation of Alan Mulally, CEO
of Ford Motor). Give a brief interpretation of this percentile
rank.

 The data on revenues arranged in increasing order is as
follows:
 21.6 21.7 22.9 25.2 26.5 28.0 28.2 32.6 32.9 70.1 76.1 84.5
 In this data set, 4 of the 12 values are less than $26.5 million.
Hence,
4
Percentile rank of 26.5= ×100=33.33 %
12

 Rounding this answer to the nearest integral value, we can
state that about 33% of these 12 CEOs had 2010 total
compensations of less than $26.5 million. Hence, 67% of
these 12 CEOs had $26.5 million or higher total compensations
in 2010.

BOX-AND-WHISKER PLOT
 Definition
 A plot that shows the center, spread, and skewness of a data
set. It is constructed by drawing a box and two whiskers that
use the median, the first quartile, the third quartile, and the
smallest and the largest values in the data set between the
lower and the upper inner fences.

Example 3-24
 The following data are the incomes (in thousands of dollars)
for a sample of 12 households.
 75 69 84 112 74 104 81 90 94 144 79 98
 Construct a box-and-whisker plot for these data.

 Step 1. First, rank the data in increasing order and calculate
the values of the median, the first quartile, the third quartile,
and the interquartile range. The ranked data are
 69 74 75 79 81 84 90 94 98 104 112 144
 Median = (84 + 90) / 2 = 87

 Q1 = (75 + 79) / 2 = 77
 Q3 = (98 + 104) / 2 = 101
 IQR = Q3 – Q1 = 101 – 77 = 24

 Step 2. Find the points that are 1.5 x IQR below Q1 and 1.5 x
IQR above Q3.
 1.5 x IQR = 1.5 x 24 = 36

 Lower inner fence = Q1 – 36 = 77 – 36 = 41
 Upper inner fence = Q3 + 36 = 101 + 36 = 137

 Step 3. Determine the smallest and the largest values in the
given data set within the two inner fences.
 Smallest value within the two inner fences = 69

 Largest value within the two inner fences = 112

 Step 4. Draw a horizontal line and mark the income levels
on it such that all the values in the given data set are
covered. The result of this step is shown in Figure 3.13.

 Step 5. By drawing two lines, join the points of the
smallest and the largest values within the two inner
fences to the box. These values are 69 and 112 in this
example. This completes the box-and-whisker plot, as
shown in Figure 3.14.
