Sampling Procedures for Project 1
On the course portal webpage there is a file called “Project 1 Data.” This is the data file you want.
1. Save the Project 1 Data to your I:/ drive. Open the file in Excel.
2. Find the name closest to your last name on the list. This is the first member of your sample. In my case this is Deandre Bell.
3. Select the entire row using the row tag on the left end.
4. Start counting with the next name on the list. Count down three names. While holding the “Ctrl” key, select the row by clicking on the row tag. You now have two non-adjacent rows selected. Count down three more lines and select the next member of your sample. Repeat this procedure until you have thirty players. If you reach the bottom of the list go to the top and continue.
5. “Copy” the selection. Now go to the “Blank” worksheet and “Paste” the selection. You will now have your sample of thirty players in its own sheet for analysis.

Sampling Procedures for Project 1
On the course portal webpage there is a file called “Project 1
Data.” This is the data file you want.
1. Save the Project 1 Data to your I:/ drive. Open the file in
Excel.
2. Find the name closest to your last name on the list. This is
the first member of your sample. In my case this is Deandre
Bell.
3. Select the entire row using the row tag on the left end.
4. Start counting with the next name on the list. Count down
three names. While holding the “Ctrl” key, select the row by
clicking on the row tag. You now have two non-adjacent rows
selected. Count down three more lines and select the next
member of your sample. Repeat this procedure until you have
thirty players. If you reach the bottom of the list go to the top
and continue.
5. “Copy” the selection. Now go to the “Blank” worksheet and
“Paste” the selection. You will now have your sample of thirty
players in its own sheet for analysis.

10. I found my own personal sample of 30 players by starting
at the player named in the email that accompanied this
assignment. Start counting with the next person on the list, and
take every third person on the list until I get 30 people. The
data can be found in the spreadsheet ``Sample Data".
Using Excel, we found the following five-number summary
for the data ``Weight". The calculations were made in Excel.

We draw a box whisker plot of the sample data as follows:
Using Excel, we calculated that the sample mean was
220.6 pounds, and the sample standard deviation was 33.84
pounds. We used the sample mean of 220.6 pounds and sample
standard deviation of 33.84 pounds to get an Empirical Rule
graph as follows:
11. As the population has a mean of 214.6 pounds with a
population standard deviation of 42.2 pounds, the sample data
has a mean of 220.60 pounds with a standard deviation of 33.84
pounds, which is very close to the population parameters. Thus,
we would say that the sample statistics fairly represent the
population parameters.
The above box whisker plot shows the data is skewed to
right, so looks differently than the Empirical Rule graph. So,
the data does not follow the Empirical Rule.
