4.Are there outliers among the values of age? Provide a rationale for your answer. It’s a subject that’s unusually high or low from the mean simple calculation. An outlier can mess around with a data and make the interpretation outcomes difficult. If you find an outlier you can also find an interquartile range of the distribution and an outlier age that’s about 1.5 times outside the interquartile range. Statistics Age NValid10 Missing0 Percentiles2540.00 5052.50 7579.00 The interquartile range is 39.00. Lower bound for Outlier = 40 .00 – 1.5*39.00 = -18.5 Upper bound of Outlier = 79.00 +1.5*39.00 = 137.5 Since all age’s are within the upper and lower hence there are no Outlier’s. 5.What is the range of age values? When the lowest age is calculated by the highest the range is 51 Descriptive Statistics NRangeMinimumMaximum Age10513586 Valid N (listwise)10 6.What percentage of patients had been taking Infliximab? 30% of the patients was taking were taking infliximab, so it’s 3 out of every 10 patients.
