Name(s): _______________________Crime StatisticsOne of the great and nagging questions of all time is: How safe is the place where I live? Families spend small fortunes on security systems for their home and take extra precautions when on vacation all so they can feel safe. By examining the crime statistics for the fifty states across seven different categories, students can get a feel for where the safe places in the United States are, and where the least safe places are as well.Task:1. Create a table of summary statistics for each crime. Include the Minimum, Maximum, Range, Mean, Standard Deviation, Five Number Summary, and Interquartile Range. Make sure to also look for and note any outliers. (EACH TABLE 6 POINTS EACH)2. Create a box & whisker plot (modified boxplot) for each crime. (EACH BOXPLOT 7 POINTS EACH). 3. Based on the data, what are the safest and most dangerous states to live in? Support your choices with the statistics that were found in the previous question. Be specific. (10 POINTS)You may use excel to create tables and boxplots but every plot must be labeled, printed and handed in. You may also use your calculators to find the statistics and create the boxplots be hand.
