Question

(1) randomly selected people were surveyed to determine how people rate the quality of programming

     available on television. Respondents were asked to rate the overall quality from 0 (no quality at all)

     to 100 (extremely good quality). The stem-and-leaf display of the data is shown below.

            Stem    Leaves    

                 3        24                          Stem unit = ten

                 4        03478999

                 5        0112345

                 6        12566

                 7        01

                 8

                 9        2

                                   

      Referring to the stem-and-leaf display above, what percent of the respondents rated overall television

      quality with a rating of 80 or above?

(2) Assuming an approximately normal distribution of return rates for Stock D, then an interval that  should contain approximately 95% of the monthly return rates of Stock D would be closest to which interval below? (by empirical rule)

A. (.13 , .51)         B. (.23 , .41)         C. (.04 , .59)         D. (.04 , .09)        E. (23.8 , 42.1)
