Hi,When do you need them ?Steve
As soon as possible I need to use these to study and review for my test in a couple of hours and the teacher says the test will be based off this homework so If I can do this I should have no problem with the test but If my answers are wrong it wont help me review for test so I am asking for your help
Ok,I am working on them nowFor question 5) some thextbooks differ in the formula to find the percentilesIf you have that formula it would be greatSteve
My book list a couple also but the one in this chapter has p/100 * (n + 1) Im not sure if this was the formula you were looking for
That´s the beginning of the process, after computing that value it must be another stepCan you post it here?Steve
Chapter 4 it gives me this (B+0.5E)/ n * 100= percentile
Where B = number of scores below xE = number of scores equal to xn = number of scores
Ok,Finishing the questions nowSteve
That formula give us p(percentile) for a given value of xBut in question 5) we need to know x given pI think that the first formula you posted is useful , but after that you have to round or doing something with:p/100 * (n + 1)Can you check that ?Steve
