Minitab Assignment Number 2
The following data are commute times (in minutes) from your professor’s home to work for 25 consecutive workdays. Key the data in Minitab in C1 and name the column Commute Times.
Construct a histogram in Minitab of your professor’s commute times. Your first Minitab assignment walks you through how to create a histogram, and there are videos in your Canvas course.
Make sure your histogram includes the following:
Appropriate title
Appropriate time units identified in the plot on the x-axis (title)
Footnote explaining what the class length is and an example of the first-class lower and upper boundaries.
Copy graph below this line and size it as: 4 X 6
Explain the shape of the histogram in detail, what, why, when, how
Questions:
What is the shape of the histogram, and explain in detail the what, why, when, how, etc.?
What is the class length?
What would you recommend at this point and why?
The 21stcommute time, 37.4 minutes, reflects a day when your professor left home without his laptop computer and had to turn around to retrieve it. Remove this outlier from the data set and reconstruct the histogram.
Copy the second histogram below this line and size it 4 X 6
