Suppose the following tables present the number of specimens that tested positive for Type A and Type B influenza in a country during a flu season. Type A 38 100 186 199 253 380 595 966 1611 2638 3845 4931 5183 5367 5890 Type B 59 95 116 143 156 225 271 366 495 696 851 1060 1140 1101 1202 Send data to Excel (a) Find the mean and median number of Type A cases. Round the answers to at least one decimal place. (b) Find the mean and median number of Type B cases. Round the answers to at least one decimal place. (c) A public health official says that there are more than twice as many cases of Type A influenza than Type B. Do these data support this claim

(a) Mean and Median of type A

(b) Mean and Median of type B

(c) The claim by the public health worker is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Solving (a): The mean and median of A.

Mean is calculated using:

The median is calculated using:

The 8th item is: 966

So:

Solving (b): The mean and median of B.

Mean is calculated using:

The median is calculated using:

The 8th item is: 366

So:

(c) The claim by the public health worker is true.

To do this, we simply compare the mean value of both types.

For Type A

For Type B

The claim is:

Since the inequality is true, then the claim is true
