C) Number of minutes to complete the test Industry standard Inhouse Minimum (Min) 301 308 Lower quartile (Q1) 338.5 322 Median 363.5 326 Upper quartile (Q3) 381.5 335.5 Maximum (Max) 653 351 Mean 370.1 328.5 Standard deviation (SD) 70.21 10.46 Interquartile range (IQR) 43 13. 5 Range 352 43 Size of dataset (n) 20 20(d) () Identify the two measures of location from the table in part (c). Use both of these measures to determine which of the two datasets has the higher location. [4] (fi) Identify the three measures of spread from the table in part (c). Which of the two datasets has the wider spread, as measured by each of these three measures? [4] (e) (i) The researcher concludes that the inhouse software package runs quicker than the industry standard software package. Is this a reasonable conclusion?" Explain your answer briefly. [2] (ii) Which stage of the statistical investigation is used in part (e)(i)? Briefly justify your answer.
