Create a Histogram and Frequency Table for the Wins column

Excel Homework 1

Fall 2020

Add the Data Analysis ToolPak to your computer. The instructions for Windows-based computers are in the Homework 1 Tutorial in Canvas. (Depending on your Excel version, Data Analysis Toolpak may not able to be accessed on a Mac.  Any work that can’t be done on a Mac must be completed on a PC.) You will not be able to proceed to other homework questions without adding Data Analysis ToolPak.

 

Using the Homework 1 Data Set in Module 1 in Canvas and following the example in the Excel Homework 1 Tutorial, create a Histogram and Frequency Table for the Wins column.  Please note that the Tutorial example uses the Payroll in Millions column.  For your Histogram and Frequency Table, you will be using the Wins column, NOT the Payroll in Millions column.  You will want to set bins in increments of 5 (starting at 50 and going through 100) and label your Bins column with the title Bin Values. After creating the frequency table and histogram (make sure you complete the step of making the columns touch so there is no open space between the columns), answer Questions 1, 2, and 3 below. (This histogram and frequency table may not be able to be done on a Mac.)  The frequency table and histogram do not need to be turned in with your homework.

 

  1. Why do we need to take the extra step and make sure the columns are touching in the histogram? (What kind of graph would we have if the columns don’t touch?) (.1)

 

  1. Since you made the columns touch, why are there still open spaces between some of the columns? Look at the frequency table to help answer this question.  (.1)

 

  1. Use the histogram to describe the shape of the distribution. (The histogram helps us turn data into information.)  (.1)

 

Using the Homework 1 Data Set in Canvas and following the instructions in the Excel Homework 1 Tutorial, create a pivot table to show the Sum of Payroll in Millions for the teams in the American League West Division and then answer Question 4 below.  (This pivot table should have only the Sum of Payroll in Millions for the American League West.  The National League and the Central and East Divisions should not be in this pivot table.)  The pivot table does not need to be turned in with your homework.

 

  1. What is the total Payroll in Millions for the American League West? (.1)

 

  1. Write a brief paragraph on what you learned about relative and absolute cell addresses in the tutorial and what distinguishes a relative and an absolute cell. (.1)

 

  1. Name and describe a shortcut you can use in Excel. (.1)

 

(Questions 1-6 can be completed after Lecture 1.)

Homework 1 (non-Excel portion)

Fall 2020

 

  1. Tell which kind of data is used for bar charts and which kind of data is used for histograms?

 

  1. How are frequency histograms and relative frequency histograms similar and how are they different?

 

  1. Draw or type a stem and leaf diagram (do not use computer software) for the following data set:

 

59, 42, 32, 69, 35, 31 42, 53, 38, 43, 37, 64, 85, 45, 35, 47, 39

 

Is this distribution symmetric, skewed right (positive), or skewed left (negative)?

 

(Questions 10-12 can be completed after Lecture 2.)

 

  1. Interpret the following: The 60th percentile of SAT scores in the US is 1140.

 

  1. For the following data set, find the mean, median, and mode: 14, 5, 14, 9, 16, 10, 10. The units are feet.  Include the units in your answers if these are absolute measures.  [Reminder that work must be shown on all math problems.  Number answers with no work shown will not get credit; therefore, work must be shown for both mean and median (sorted data set) in order to get any credit.]

 

(Questions 13-14 can be completed after Lecture 3.)
