... The sample median and the sample mean are almost equal. This is consistent with the description of the shape of the distribution as symmetric. b) Obtain histograms and descriptive statistics for the body temperature by gender. Make sure histograms have common scales. Also obtain side-by-side box plo ...

... that we wanted to predict the weight of a college male who is 72" tall. We might be tempted to use the previous formula; ie. 72 = 0.09W + 53.7 which gives W = 203.3 lb. This cannot be correct because we would expect the weight to be 0.6 standard deviation, or (0.6)(20 lb) = 12 lb, above the mean; ie ...
