Step 1: Survey or measure 10 people to find their heights. Determine the mean and standard
deviation for this group by using the Week 3 Excel spreadsheet. Post a screen shot of the portion
of the spreadsheet that helped you determine these values. How does your height compare to the
mean (average) height of the group that you surveyed? Is your height taller, shorter, or the same
as the mean of your group?
Measure of Central Tendency and Variation:
In my survey I am utilizing random sampling and a numerical variable as I’m studying the height
of 10 out of 50 nurses. It is a convenience sample as I chose to sample the nurses where I work,
and the data is quantitative continuous since it is numerical and can have fractions. The location
was Tyler, TX. All nurses were in work-from-home positions. They come into the physical
corporate office approximately 3 times a year for meetings.
