Graph.1: normal distribution curve

The question is asking about defining the different lengths and to divide it into
three sections. Long, medium and short. We have found the normal distribution of
all Numbers and then put them in the graph according to their lengths.
P.S. The green color refers to the short-stable while the medium-stables are in blue
and finally the red color part in the graph represents the long-stables.

We have used a basketball statistics for the Miami heat team in 2014-2015 season. Our data retrieved
from http://espn.go.com/nba/team/stats/_/name/mia . However, we have collected 21 basketball
player and got their game played, points per game and block per game statistics. After that, we did more
than eight kind of statistic based on their information and finally, we have plotted the graphs.

Graphs above represents descriptive statistics for each variable separately next we will discuss it.

Fig.1: Descriptive statistics by using the mini tab

By using the mini tab program and we summarized the median, variance, mean and other
descriptive statistics the table above represents that:
1- Maximum points ratio per game was 66.60 while the minimum value was 0.80 and that
represents a large variation between that two variables.
2- The variance for game played here is quite large, especially when compared to the value
of the mean. This indicates that changing the ingredients had a strong effect.
3- The variance for points per game here is quite large, especially when compared to the
value of the mean. This indicates that changing the ingredients also had a strong effect.

Points Per Game

The graphs above is a comparison between the three variables that graph represents that there is a
fluctuation between the variables. And it is obvious because the number of points per game not
homogeneous with the number of game played. As shown above that data breaks the role that
say more played more scored in the graph above we can observe that there are players scored
more points and played less matches.

The above graphs represents the ration of game played for each player as can be shown we have
a sharp fluctuation between the ratios.

The above graphs represents the ration of points per game for each player as can be shown we
have a steady decreasing of ratios. As can be shown goaran dragic have the highest ratio of point
scored and his ratio above the mean which creates outliers in our boxplot.

The above graphs represents the ration of blocks per game for each player as can be shown we
have a fluctuation between the ratios but some player break the average and record more blocks
than others that because his position in the playground .As can be shown hassan record break the
mean and median and has a unique record after him chris come secondly other than those two
players the rest have a blocks in a closed rang.

We do not have any outliers, which means that there was no particular combination of
ingredients that was exceptional when compared to all the rest. Our median is noticeably near to
the center, which indicates that most of the cases are near to mean.

In those two variables we have some outliers, which means that there was a particular
combination of ingredients that was exceptional when compared to other variables. Our median
is noticeably shifted downwards from the center in both variables above, which indicates that
most of the cases are below the mean.
