1.State how many peaks you would expect for the distribution described.
Voice pitch for the people in the school auditorium consisting of 6 year olds giving a concert, their mothers, and their fathers

Answer 3)Three

Why? Because young children, adult female and adult male all have different pitches, so expect 3 separate peaks



2.Tell which of the following distributions would have the least variation.

Answer 1)Weights of all pet cats

Why? Because most cats are about the same size and the closer they are to the mean, the less variation will appear in the distribution.

For dogs, you can go from a tiny chihuahua to a great dane. So, a huge variation.

Same with children depending upon the definition ages newborn to under 18? There will be a huge weight spread.

Make sense?

Have a GREAT day!
