  1. Create two variables in data sheet sex and Exam Score.
  2. Create a grouped distribution where I = 10, name the new variable interval.
  3. Create histograms of where I = 5, and I =10.
  4. Create a frequency distribution table of exam scores where I = 10, list all of the score class intervals 90-99 down to 30-39.
  5. Construct a table showing the descriptive statistics of both the ungrouped and grouped exam scores.
  6. Analyze the exam score for each gender separately showing the following:
    1. Descriptive statistics for each gender.
