Example: College Class Size We have the following sample of data for 5 college classes: 46 54 42 46 32 We use the notation x 1, x 2, x 3, x 4, and x 5 to represent the number of students in each of the 5 classes: X 1 = 46 x 2 = 54 x 3 = 42 x 4 = 46 x 5 = 32 Thus we have: The average class size is 44 students

Population Mean ( ) The number of observations in the population is denoted by the upper case N. The sample mean is a point estimator of the population mean

Median The median is the value in the middle when the data are arranged in ascending order (from smallest value to largest value). a. For an odd number of observations the median is the middle value. b. For an even number of observations the median is the average of the two middle values.

Percentiles The pth percentile is a value such that at least p percent of the observations are less than or equal to this value and at least (100 – p) percent of the observations are greater than or equal to this value. I scored in the 70 th percentile on the Graduate Record Exam (GRE)—meaning I scored higher than 70 percent of those who took the exam
![Calculating the pth Percentile Step 1 Arrange the data in ascendingorder smallest value Calculating the pth Percentile • Step 1: Arrange the data in ascendingorder (smallest value](https://slidetodoc.com/presentation_image/24a547999d5ab3b430d619ab1449c058/image-14.jpg)
Calculating the pth Percentile • Step 1: Arrange the data in ascendingorder (smallest value to largest value). • Step 2: Compute an index i where p is the percentile of interest and n in the number of observations. • Step 3: (a) If i is not an integer, round up. The next integer greater than i denotes the position of the pth percentile. (b) If i is an integer, the pth percentile is the average of values in i and i + 1

Example: Starting Salaries of Business Grads Let’s compute the 85 th percentile using the starting salary data. First arrange the data in ascending order. Step 1: 2710 2755 2850 2880 2890 2920 2940 2950 3050 3130 3325 Step 2: Step 3: Since 10. 2 in not an integer, round up to 11. The 85 thpercentile is the 11 th position (3130)
