Descriptive Statistics and Plots Assignment
OBJECTIVES
By the end of this assignment, you should be able to
1. Utilize descriptive statistics and plots on data using Excel
2. Perform exploratory analysis on an unknown dataset using descriptive statistics
and plots to derive conclusions on dataset.
Deliverables
The deliverables should be uploaded to Blackboard by end of class period.
• A Word Document with the analysis of the dataset which includes the following:

o Interpretations and conclusions for all statistics and plots
o Overall conclusions
INTRODUCTION
Engineers use statistical software to assist in the laborious and extensive calculations. The
statistical packages can easily create a wide variety of graphs to display your data. This
laboratory exercise is designed to enhance your skills and develop your ability to explore
an unknown dataset and present your statistical results using Excel.
Procedure
You will perform analysis on a census dataset called state.x77 which is located on
blackboard.
1. Create a histogram using one of the continuous data columns of the worksheet.
a. Choose a suitable number of bins to represent the variation in the data. The
plot should be formatted and labeled appropriately.
b. Provide interpretations for the plot.
2. Calculate the following descriptive statistics for the population data for each of the
regions.
a. Mean, Median, and Mode
b. Variance, Standard Deviation, and Range
3. Create a BoxPlot to compare population data for the different regions in the United
States.
a. The plot should be formatted and labeled appropriately.
b. Provide interpretations for the plot.
4. Compare and contrast the different regions. Be sure to discuss the variation for each
region.
state.x77: a dataset (matrix) with 50 rows and 8 columns giving the following statistics in
the respective columns.
State: list of states in alphabetical order
Population: population estimate as of July 1, 1975
Region: regional location of state
Income: per capita income (1974)
Illiteracy: illiteracy (1970, percent of population)
Life Exp: life expectancy in years (1969–71)
Murder: murder and non-negligent manslaughter rate per 100,000 population (1976)
HS Grad: percent high-school graduates (1970)
Frost: mean days with minimum temperature below freezing (1931–60) in capital or large
city
Area: land area in square miles
