gave last year. The attendance records revealed the following information:

No. of Sermons Attended Men Women
1 to 10 4 1
11 to 20 7 5
21 to 30 13 16
31 to 40 20 21
41 to 50 3 9

a. Compute the mean for each distribution.
b. Compute the median for each distribution.
c. Compute the mode for each distribution.
d. What conclusion can you draw from your analysis? Write a short paragraph about the results.

2. The following data represent the annual earnings of 200 families in two small barangays.

ACTIVITY 1
Statistical Test (z-test)

1. Iron Deficiency The Food and Nutrition Board of the National Academy of Science states that the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of iron in adult
females under the age of 51 is 18 mg. Iron intakes for 45 randomly selected adult females under the age of 51 were obtained. At the 1% significance level,
do the data suggest that adult females under age 51, on average, get less than 18 mg of iron daily? Assume = 4.2 mg and x = 14.68 mg and the iron
intakes are ND. Critical value from z table: = 2.325
2. Researchers at the University of Maryland obtained body temperatures from 93 healthy Humans. At the 1% significance level, do the data provide
sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean body temperature of healthy humans differs from 98.6o F. Assume = 0.63oF and the sum of the 93
temperatures is 9125.5oF. Assume the temperatures are normally distributed. Critical value from z table: = 2.575
