1.8 Describing and Critiquing Arguments
1.8.5 Exercises

1.8.5.1.

Solution.
  1. The argument is inductive.
  2. The argument is deductive.

1.8.5.3.

Solution.
Premise: All cats are scared of vacuum cleaners.
Premise: Max is a cat.
Conclusion: Max must be scared of vacuum cleaners.
This is a deductive argument. It is valid. However, it is not sound because the premise all cats are afraid of vacuum cleaners is false. While many cats are afraid of vacuum cleaners not ALL cats are afraid. There are many videos of cats riding electronic vacuum cleaners.

1.8.5.5.

Solution.
Premise: Kiran’s female and nonbinary friends made less than Kiran’s male friends.
Conclusion: Women and nonbinary people make less than men.
This is an inductive argument. Kiran did not gather a large diverse sample because they only asked their friends. Therefore, their data has sampling bias. This makes their argument weak.

1.8.5.7.

Solution.
Premise: All bicycles have two wheels.
Premise: My friend’s Harley-Davidson motorcycle has two wheels.
Conclusion: It must be a bicycle.
This is a deductive argument. The argument is not valid. Based on the premises, we know that the friend’s Harley-Davidson motorcycle has two wheels, but we do not know whethere or not it is a bicycle. Because it is not valid, it is also not sound.

1.8.5.9.

Solution.
Premise: All students drink a lot of caffeine.
Premise: Brayer drinks a lot of caffeine.
Conclusion: He must be a student.
This is a deductive argument. The argument is not valid. We can not determine if Brayer is a student or not. Because it is not valid it is also not sound.

1.8.5.11.

Solution.
Premise: People on this reality show are self-absorbed.
Premise: Laura is not self-absorbed.
Conclusion: Laura cannot be on this reality show.
This argument is deductive. The argument is valid because Laura is outside of the set of self-absorbed people, so she must also be outside of this set of people on this reality show. Determining if this conclusion is sound is more difficult because determining if someone is self-absorbed is subjective.

1.8.5.13.

Solution.
The argument is valid and sound.

1.8.5.15.

Solution.
The argument is not valid, and it is not sound.

1.8.5.17.

Solution.
This argument is valid, and it is sound. Because Ethan is in the set of folks who missed 25% of the classes he also falls into the set of failing.

1.8.5.19.

Solution.
This argument is not valid, and is not sound. We cannot determine if Juan took the test.

2 Financial Math
2.1 Introduction to Spreadsheets
2.1.6 Exercises

2.1.6.1.

Solution.
=4/7 which gives approximately 0.571429

2.1.6.3.

Solution.
=8+19 which gives 27

2.1.6.5.

Solution.
=12*9 which gives 108

2.1.6.7.

Solution.
=8^3 which gives 512

2.1.6.9.

Solution.
=7.50/44.50 which gives approximately 0.1685, or approximately 16.85%

2.1.6.11.

Solution.
  1. =5780.23-5250 which gives $530.23
  2. =530.23/5250 which gives approximately 0.100996, or approximately 10.1%
  3. Exactly 200%
  4. =5250*115.5% which gives exactly $6063.75

2.1.6.13.

Solution.
  1. =1000*103%*103% which gives $1060.90
  2. =1000*(103%)^2 gives the same result of $1060.90, because raising 103% to the second power means the same as multiplying 103% by itself two times.
  3. =1000*(103%)^15 which gives $1557.97 rounded to the nearest cent
  4. Refer to the table at the bottom for part d and part e.
    Note the entry in cell B3 here is = B2*103% and the remaining cells are computed using the fill down feature.
    You will have to wait a minimum of 24 full years, in each case, in order for the balance to finally exceed twice the opening deposit amount.
  5. Since \((103\%)^{23} \lt 2 \lt (103\%)^{24}\text{,}\) the minimum number of full years until the opening deposit doubles must be the same here, for any positive opening balance that we may choose for this account.
A portion of a spreadsheet is shown, which includes cells A1 through E32, and with a title heading of Table 3. Cell A1 shows a column title of Year, and cells A2 through A32 contain values of 0 through 30, respectively. Cells D1 through D32 are a copy of cells A1 through A32. Cell B1 shows a column title of Balance. Cell B2 shows $1,000.00, which corresponds to Year 0 displaying in adjacent cell A1. Cell B3 shows $1,030.00, which is 103% of the $1,000 shown in cell B2. Cell B4 shows $1,060.90, which is 103% of the $1,030.00 shown in cell B3. This pattern continues until we get to cell B32, which shows $2,427.26, and which is 103% of the $2,356.57 amount shown in cell B31. Cell E1 shows a column title of Balance. Cell B2 shows $5,000.00, which corresponds to Year 0 displaying in adjacent cell D1. Cell E3 shows $5,150.00, which is 103% of the $5,000 shown in cell E2. Cell E4 shows $5,304.50, which is 103% of the $5,150.00 shown in cell E3. This pattern continues until we get to cell E32, which shows $12,136.31, and which is 103% of the $11,782.83 amount shown in cell E31.

2.4 Loan Payments
2.4.9 Exercises

2.4.9.1.

Solution.
  1. \(P = \frac{700\left(1-\left(1+\frac{5.5\%}{12}\right)^{-12\times 30}\right)}{\frac{5.5\%}{12}}\text{,}\) which gives \(P \approx \$123{,}285.23\)
    or =PV(0.055/12,12*30,-700) [Note 700 is entered as negative, to signify a payment]
  2. \(700 * 12 * 30\) dollars, or $252,000.00 in total payments to the loan company
  3. Interest will be the difference between the total payments, and the amount borrowed. So the interest on this loan is \(\$252{,}000.00 - \$123{,}285.23 = \$128{,}714.77\text{.}\)

2.4.9.3.

Solution.
\(d = \frac{25000\left(\frac{2\%}{12}\right)}{\left(1-\left(1+\frac{2\%}{12}\right)^{-12 \times 4}\right)}\text{,}\) which gives \(d \approx \$542.38\)
or =PMT(0.02/12,48,25000)

2.4.9.5.

Solution.
  1. The loan amount will be 90% of $200,000.00
    \begin{gather*} = (0.9 * \$200{,}000.00)\\ = \$180{,}000.00 \end{gather*}
  2. \(d = \frac{180000\left(\frac{5\%}{12}\right)}{\left(1-\left(1+\frac{5\%}{12}\right)^{-12 \times 30}\right)}\text{,}\) which gives \(d \approx \$966.28\)
    or =PMT(0.05/12,12*30,180000)
  3. \(d = \frac{180000\left(\frac{6\%}{12}\right)}{\left(1-\left(1+\frac{6\%}{12}\right)^{-12 \times 30}\right)}\text{,}\) which gives \(d \approx \$1{,}079.19\)
    or =PMT(0.06/12,12*30,180000)

2.4.9.7.

Solution.
First, we need to find out the amount of the monthly payments for this loan.
\(d = \frac{24000\left(\frac{3\%}{12}\right)}{\left(1-\left(1+\frac{3\%}{12}\right)^{-12 \times 5}\right)}\text{,}\) which gives \(d \approx \$431.25\)
or =PMT(0.03/12,12*5,24000)
The amount still owed three years later, is the present value of the two years of remaining payments on the loan.
\(P = \frac{\left(1-\left(1+\frac{3\%}{12}\right)^{-12 \times 2}\right)}{\frac{3\%}{12}}\text{,}\) which gives \(P \approx \$10{,}033.45\)
or =PV(0.03/12,12*2,-431.25)

2.4.9.9.

Solution.
=PV(0.04/12,12*30,950) which gives $198,988.18.
Now add $20,000 to this balance, which gives $218,988.18.

2.4.9.11.

Solution.
  1. =PMT(0.05,10,100000,0) which gives $12,950.46.
  2. The total payments will be $129,504.60.
    The interest is the amount over the $100,000 initial investment, or $29,504.60.
    The percentage of the total payment sum representing interest will be \(100(29,504.60/129,504.60)\%\text{,}\) or approximately 22.7827%.

2.4.9.13.

Solution.
  1. =PMT(0.045/12,12*30,250000) which gives $1,266.71.
  2. This will be the present value of the remaining 240 loan payments:
    =PV(0.045/12,12*20,1266.71) which gives $200,223.07.
  3. This will be the present value of the remaining 120 loan payments:
    =PV(0.045/12,12*10,1266.71) which gives $122,223.99.
  4. At the beginning of the repayment period, most of each payment goes to interest (thus the loan balance reduces very slowly at first). Over time, more of each payment shifts to principal, and less to interest. At the end of the loan repayment period, nearly all the payment is going to principal.

2.4.9.15.

Solution.
=FV(0.035/12,3*12,200,0) = $7,579.95. Paul will have $7,579.95 in 3 years.

2.4.9.17.

Solution.
=PV(0.028/12,4*12,100,0) = $4,535.96. Miao can finance $4,535.96 in equipment to have a monthly loan payment of $100 for 4 years.

2.4.9.19.

Solution.
=PMT(0.043/12,30*12,364500,0) = $1,803.81. Their mortgage payment would be $1,803.81.

2.4.9.21.

Solution.
For the first plan: =FV(0.048/12,20*12,150,0) = $60,251.26. Zahid would have $60,251.26 if he puts in $150 per month for 20 years.
For the second plan: =FV(0.048/12,10*12,300,0) = $46,089.59. Zahid would only have $46,089.59 if he waited and put in $300 per month for 10 years.

2.5 Income Taxes
2.5.14 Exercises

2.5.14.1.

Solution.
A credit decreases your bill more. It decreases your bill by the full amount of the credit. A deduction only decreases your tax bill by a percentage.

2.5.14.3.

Solution.
The amount of taxes owed is decreased by $60 because 12% of $500 is $60.

2.5.14.5.

Solution.
Yes, you can make adjustments and take a deduction. Adjustments to your income happen before deductions.

2.5.14.7.

Solution.
Shaysiah should itemize because itemizing reduces her taxable income by $15,400. The standard deduction would have reduced her taxable income by $14,600.

2.5.14.9.

Solution.
No, Fredrick should not be concerned. Only the $1000 will be taxed at 22%. The rest of his income will be taxed at a lower level.

2.5.14.11.

Solution.
There is a total of $35,550 between $11,600 and $47,150. 12% of $35,550 is $4,266.

2.5.14.13.

Solution.
$16,589 in taxes minus $13,456 for withholdings, and they can claim and $2,500 in credits. This leaves them owing $633.

2.5.14.15.

Solution.
  1. Take the income minus the adjustments \(135000-5600=\$129{,}400\text{.}\) Their adjusted gross income is $129,400.
  2. They should take the standard deduction because itemizing saves them less.
  3. Taxable income: \(129400-29200=100200\)
    Taxes owed: \(10852+0.22*(100200-94300)=\$12{,}150\)
    They owe $12,150 in taxes.
  4. \(12150-15000=-\$2{,}850\) Take the taxes owed minus credits and withholdings. They will receive a refund for $2,850.

2.5.14.17.

Solution.
  1. Gross Income: \(96000+850 = \$96{,}850\)
  2. Adjusted Gross Income: \(96850-26000 = \$70{,}850\)
  3. She should take itemized deductions since they are greater than the standard deduction for head of household.
  4. Taxable Income: \(70850-22600 = \$48{,}250 \)
  5. Tax from Table: \(1655 + 0.12*(48250 - 16550) = \$5{,}459\text{.}\) Owed/Refund: \(5459 – 4000 – 5300 = - \$3{,}841\)
    Janice will receive a refund of $3,841.

3 Statistics
3.1 Overview of the Statistical Process
3.1.22 Exercises

3.1.22.1.

Solution.
A sample is a sub group of the population. A population is the entire group of subjects.

3.1.22.3.

Solution.
The intended population is all PCC students.
  1. All PCC Students
  2. 200 students from PCC Cascade campus
  3. The collected data is not representative of all PCC students since it only includes responses from students at Cascade campus. This is an example of sampling bias.

3.1.22.5.

Solution.
  1. The representatives in a state’s congress.
  2. The population size is \(n=106\)
  3. The sample size is in \(n=28\)
  4. The statistic is \(\frac{14}{28}=0.5\) or 50%
  5. The confidence interval is \((45\%, 55\%)\) and tells us that the true percentage of the state congress representatives in support of the new education (the parameter) likely lies between 45% and 55%.

3.2 Describing Data
3.2.24 Exercises

3.2.24.1.

Solution.
True

3.2.24.3.

Solution.
  1. Quantitative
  2. Categorical
  3. Categorical
  4. Quantitative
  5. Quantitative

3.2.24.5.

Solution.
Bar graphs and pie charts are used for categorical data.

3.2.24.7.

Solution.
  1. 2 had 3 children.
  2. 15 adults were questioned.
  3. 33.33% of the adults questioned had 0 children.

3.2.24.9.

Solution.
5 students earned and A on their paper.

3.2.24.11.

Solution.
Cory spent $676 on rent this month.

3.2.24.13.

Solution.
  1. These data are categorical.
  2. There are four spaced apart bars labeled Pollution of drinking water, Contamination of soil and water by toxic waste, Air pollution, and Global warming. The x-axis is labeled Environmental Issue and the y-axis is labeled frequncy. Pollution of drinking water goes up to 597, Contamination of soil and drinking water goes up to 526, Air pollution goes up to 455, and Global warming goes up to 354.
  3. No, we cannot make a pie chart out of these data. The total of the relative frequencies is 1932, but only 1012 adults were asked. So some adults selected multiple options.

3.2.24.15.

Solution.
  1. 40 households heat their home with firewood.
  2. 50% of the households heat their home with natural gas.

3.2.24.17.

Solution.
  1. These data are qualitative.
  2. Number of cars
    in household    		 Frequency
    0-1 7
    2-3 14
    4-5 3
  3. The histogram is titled "Histogram of number of cars in household". The x-axis is labeled Number of Cars, the scale goes from 0 to 6 and jumps by 1 unit. There are three bars, one from 0-2, one from 2-4, and one from 4-6. The y-axis is labeled Frequency and the scale goes from 0 to 16 by units of two. The 0-2 bar goes to 7, the 2-4 bar goes to 14, and the 4-6 bar goes to 3.
  4. These data are unimodal and skewed right, with no outliers.

3.2.24.19.

Solution.
The graph would be more effective at displaying the true differences between the categories if the vertical scale started at 0. The vertical axis is missing a label and units, so we can’t tell if those are frequencies or relative frequencies. A flat bar graph (instead of the 3d graph) would be easier to read.

3.2.24.21.

Solution.
This is a poor graph because the vertical axis does not have a numerical scale, so we cannot know how many have each drink as a favorite drink. We also don’t know if the bottom vertical line represents 0, which is potentially misleading.

3.2.24.23.

Solution.
  1. Normal distribution – The number of heads in 24 sets of 100 coin flips.
  2. Positive or right skewed – Distribution of scores on a psychology test.
  3. Negative or left skewed – Scores on a 20-point statistics quiz.
  4. Bimodal – The frequency of times between eruptions of the Old Faithful geyser.

3.2.24.25.

Solution.
  2. The data for patients of both researchers are symmetric. Researcher’s 1 patients’ data appears to be unimodal, but Researcher 2’s patients’ data may be bimodal or multimodal. The data for Researcher 1’s patients does not have any outliers, but the data for Researcher’s 2 may have outliers between 0 and 5 months or 40 and 45 months.

    There are 15 times shown, so \(n=15\text{.}\) We start by listing the data in order:
    $5, $7, $7.25, $7.50, $7.50, $7.50, $8, $8, $8.25, $9, $10, $10, $12, $15, $25
    \(Median=\$8.00\)
  3. Since the mean is greater than the median, we would expect the distribution will be skewed right.

3.3.7.3.

Solution.
  1. In Excel:
    =average(15.2,18.8,19.3,19.7,20.2,21.8,22.1,29.4)
    \(=20.81\) seconds
    There are 8 times shown, so \(n=8\text{.}\)
    \begin{align*} \bar{x} \amp= \frac{(15.2+18.8+19.3+19.7+20.2+21.8+22.1+29.4)}{15}\\ \amp=20.81 \text{ seconds} \end{align*}
  2. In Excel:
    =median(15.2,18.8,19.3,19.7,20.2,21.8,22.1,29.4)
    \(=19.95\) seconds
    There are 8 times shown, so \(n=8\text{.}\) The times are given already in order:
    15.2, 18.8, 19.3, 19.7, 20.2, 21.8, 22.1, 29.4
    \begin{align*} Median\amp=\frac{19.7+20.2}{2}\\ \amp=19.95 \text{ seconds} \end{align*}
  3. Since the mean and median are approximately equal, we would expect that the distribution is symmetric.

3.3.7.5.

Solution.
  1. In GeoGebra Classic, enter the costs into the column A and frequencies into column B of the spreadsheet and use the “One Variable Analysis” function. Then use the “Show Statistics” option.
    \begin{gather*} Mean=33.8 \text{ thousand dollars} \end{gather*}
    The sum of the frequencies is 75, so \(n=75\)
    \begin{align*} \bar{x}\amp=\frac{15\cdot 3+20\cdot 7+25\cdot 10+30\cdot 15+35\cdot 13+40\cdot 11+45\cdot 9+50\cdot 7}{75}\\ \amp=33.8 \text{ thousand dollars} \end{align*}
  2. In GeoGebra Classic, enter the costs into the column A and frequencies into column B of the spreadsheet and use the “One Variable Analysis” function. Then use the “Show Statistics” option.
    \begin{gather*} Median=35 \text{ thousand dollars} \end{gather*}
    Since there are 75 values (an odd number), we know that the median will be the single middle data value. Because \(\frac{75}{2}=37.5\text{,}\) we know it will be the 38th value in the list. The 38th value is 35, so the median is 35 thousand dollars.
  3. Since the mean is less than the median, we would expect the distribution to be skewed left.

3.3.7.7.

Solution.
  1. For Researcher 1:
    In Excel:
    =average(A1:A40)
    \(=23.6\) months.
    =median(A1:A40)
    \(=24\) months
    The mean for Researcher 1’s patients is 23.6 months, and the median for Researcher’s 1 patients is 24 months.
    For Researcher 2:
    In Excel:
    =average(A1:A40)
    \(=22.8\) months
    =median(A1:A40)
    \(=22\) months
    The mean for Researcher 2’s patients is 22.8 months, and the median is 22 months
  2. Both the mean and median for Researcher 1’s patients are greater than the mean and median for Researcher 2’s patients. So, on average, Researcher 1’s patients have a longer life time after starting the cancer treatment than Researcher 2’s patients.

3.3.7.9.

Solution.
GeoGebra was used to create the histograms. You should check with your instructor to see if histograms are to be hand-drawn or computer generated. Answers will vary depending on the size of the margins and the programs you are using.
  1. Figure 3.3.16. Histogram for Average Number of Pieces Correctly Remembered by Non-players
    Figure 3.3.17. Histogram for Average Number of Pieces Correctly Remembered by Beginners
    Figure 3.3.18. Histogram for Average Number of Pieces Correctly Remembered by Tournament Players
  2. The mean number of pieces correctly remembered for non-players was 33.65 pieces.
    The mean number of pieces correctly remembered for beginners was 47.6 pieces.
    The mean number of pieces correctly remembered for tournament players was 64.98 pieces.
  3. The median number of pieces correctly remembered for non-players was 33.5 pieces.
    The median number of pieces correctly remembered for beginners was 51.3 pieces.
    The median number of pieces correctly remembered for tournament players was 71.1 pieces.
  4. The distribution for non-players appears to be uniform. The distribution for beginners looks unimodal and left-skewed. The distribution for tournament players appears bimodal and symmetric.
    The mean and median number of pieces correctly remembered were both greatest for tournament players, with non-players having the smallest mean and median of pieces correctly remembered.

3.4 Summary Statistics: Measures of Variation
3.4.10 Exercises

3.4.10.1.

Solution.
  1. In Excel:
    Entering the data values into cells A1 through A15.
    \begin{align*} s\amp=stdev.s(A1:A15)\\ \amp=\$4.82 \end{align*}
    From Exercise 3.3.7.1, the mean is $9.80. There are 15 data values, so \(n=15\text{.}\)
    We will make a table of data values, their deviations from the mean, and the squared deviations:
    Data Value Deviation Deviation Squared
    \(7.5\) \(7.5-9.8=-2.3\) \((-2.3)^2=5.29\)
    \(25\) \(25-9.8=15.2\) \((15.2)^2=231.04\)
    \(10\) \(10-9.8=0.2\) \((0.2)^2=0.04\)
    \(10\) \(10-9.8=0.2\) \((0.2)^2=0.04\)
    \(7.5\) \(7.5-9.8=-2.3\) \((-2.3)^2=5.29\)
    \(8.25\) \(8.25-9.8=-1.55\) \((-1.55)^2=2.4\)
    \(9\) \(9-9.8=-0.8\) \((-0.8)^2=0.64\)
    \(5\) \(5-9.8=-4.8\) \((-4.8)^2=23.04\)
    \(15\) \(15-9.8=5.2\) \((5.2)^2=27.04\)
    \(8\) \(8-9.8=-1.8\) \((-1.8)^2=3.24\)
    \(7.25\) \(7.25-9.8=-2.55\) \((-2.55)^2=6.5\)
    \(7.5\) \(7.5-9.8=-2.3\) \((-2.3)^2=5.29\)
    \(8\) \(8-9.8=-1.8\) \((-1.8)^2=3.24\)
    \(7\) \(7-9.8=-2.8\) \((-2.8)^2=7.84\)
    \(12\) \(12-9.8=2.2\) \((2.2)^2=4.84\)
    Next, we add the squared deviations and get \(5.29 + 231.04 + 0.04 + 0.04 + 5.29 + 2.4 + 0.64 + 23.04 + 27.04 + 3.24 + 6.5 + 5.29 + 3.24 + 7.84 + 4.84 = 325.78\) dollars-squared.
    The sample standard deviation is:
    \begin{align*} s\amp=\sqrt{\frac{325.78}{14}}\\ \amp=\$4.82 \end{align*}
  2. In GeoGebra:
    In GeoGebra Classic, enter the data values into the column A of the spreadsheet and use the “One Variable Analysis” function. Then use the “Show Statistics” option to find the five-number summary.
    Min Q1 Median Q3 Max
    $5 $7.50 $8 $10 $25
    From Exercise 3.3.7.1, the data listed in order is:
    $5.00, $7.00, $7.25, $7.50, $7.50, $7.50, $8.00, $8.00, $8.25, $9.00, $10.00, $10.00, $12.00, $15.00, $25.00
    Also from Exercise 3.3.7.1, there are 15 data values (\(n=15\)), and the median is $8.00. The lower half of the data is:
    $5.00, $7.00, $7.25, $7.50, $7.50, $7.50, $8.00
    The median of the lower half is $7.50, so the lower quartile \(Q_{1}\) is $7.50.
    The upper half of the data is:
    $8.25, $9.00, $10.00, $10.00, $12.00, $15.00, $25.00
    The median of the upper half is $10.00, so the upper quartile \(Q_{3}\) is $10.00.
    The smallest and largest data values are $5.00 and 25.00, respectively, so the min and max are $5.00 and $25.00. The five-number summary is:
    Min Q1 Median Q3 Max
    $5 $7.50 $8 $10 $25
  3. The range is:

    pieces
    The 5-number summary for beginners is:
    Min Q1 Median Q3 Max
    32.5 chess
    pieces    		 39.1 chess
    pieces    		 48.4 chess
    pieces    		 55.7 chess
    pieces    		 57.7 chess
    pieces
    The 5-number summary for tournament palyers is:
    Min Q1 Median Q3 Max
    40.1 chess
    pieces    		 51.2 chess
    pieces    		 64.6 chess
    pieces    		 75.9 chess

    \begin{align*} IQR \amp= Q_{3} - Q_{1}\\ \amp=75.9-51.2\\ \amp=24.7 \text{ chess pieces} \end{align*}
  4. Tournament players did the best at remembering positions (as shown by all of the numbers of their 5-number summary being larger than the corresponding numbers for the other two groups). However, tournaments players were not completely superior to the other two groups; the best non-players remembered more chess pieces than the worst tournament players. Also tournament players had more variation in how much they.

3.4.10.11.

Solution.
  1. There are many possible answers for this question. For example, the data sets {10, 10, 10, 10, 10} and {9, 9, 10, 11, 11} have the same mean of 10 units, but different standard deviations (0 and 1, respectively).
  2. There are many possible answers for this question. For example, the data sets {2, 2, 2, 2, 2} and {9, 9, 9, 9, 9} have the same standard deviation of 0, but different means (2 and 9, respectively).

3.4.10.13.

Solution.
  1. The 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles are, respectively, the 1st quartile, median, and 3rd quartile for the data sets. Reading the boxplot for CPAs, the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles for CPAs’ salaries are, respectively, $40,000, $75,000, and $90,000. Reading the boxplot for actuaries, the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles for actuaries’ salaries are, respectively, $75,000, $90,000, and $94,000
  2. Deshawn’s salary (the median salary for an actuary) is $90,000; Kelsey’s salary (the first quartile salary) is also $75,000. So Deshawn makes more than Kelsey, by $15,000.
  3. 75% of actuaries make more than the median salary of a CPA ($75,000).
  4. 25% of all CPAs earn less than all actuaries.

\begin{align*} Z_{English}\amp=\frac{\text{data value}-\text{mean}}{\text{standard deviation}}\\ \amp=\frac{65-53}{4}\\ \amp=3 \text{ standard deviations} \end{align*}
Because the \(Z\)-score of my English test is greater than the \(Z\)-score of my math test, I did better on the English test than I did on the math test.

3.4.10.21.

Solution.
\begin{align*} Z_{Poe}\amp=\frac{\text{data value}-\text{mean}}{\text{standard deviation}}\\ \amp=\frac{20.2-16.5}{1.85}\\ \amp=2 \text{ standard deviations} \end{align*}
\begin{align*} Z_{Gibson}\amp=\frac{\text{data value}-\text{mean}}{\text{standard deviation}}\\ \amp=\frac{107-81}{13}\\ \amp=2 \text{ standard deviations} \end{align*}
Because the \(Z\)-scores for the heights of Poe (the Clydesdale horse) and Gibson (the Great Dane) are the same, neither animal is taller than the other when compared to their respective breeds.
