Consider a sample with data values of 27, 25, 20, 15, 30, 34, 28, and 25. Compute the 21st, 26th, 65th, and 75th percentiles. If needed, round your answers to two decimal digits. Percentile Value 21% 26% 65% 75%

Sagot :

The the 21st, 26th, 65th, and 75th percentiles are 19.45, 21.7, 27.85, and 29.50.

How to compute the percentile?

Here, n=8

P21=(21(n+1)100)th value of the observation

=(21⋅9/100)th value of the observation

=1st observation +0.89[2nd-1st]

=15+0.89[20-15

= 19.45

P26 = (26(n+1)100)th value of the observation

=(26⋅9/100)th value of the observation

=2nd observation +0.34[3rd-2nd]

=20+0.34[25-20]

=20+0.34(5)

= 21.7

P65= (65(n+1)100)th value of the observation

=(65⋅9/100)th value of the observation

=5th observation +0.85[6th-5th]

=27+0.85[28-27

= 27.85

P75 = (75(n+1)100)th value of the observation

=(75⋅9/100)th value of the observation

6th observation +0.75[7th-6th]

=28+0.75[30-28]

= 28 + 1.50

= 29.50
