6. History: Florence Nightingale
What was the age distribution of nurses in Great Britain at the tine of Florence Nightingale? Thanks to Florence Nightingale and the British census of 1851, we have the following information (based on data from classic text Notes on Nursing, by Florence Nightingale). Note: in 1851 there were 25,466 nurses in Great Britain. Furthermore, Nightingale made a strict distinction between nurses and domestic servants.
Age Range (yr) 20-29 30-39 40-49 50-59 60-69 70-79 80+ Midpoint x 24.5 34.5 44.5 54.5 64.5 74.5 84.5 Percent of nurses 5.7% 9.7% 19.5% 29.2% 25.0% 9.1% 1.8%
a. Using the midpoint x and the percentages of nurses, do we have a valid probability distribution? Explain.
b. Use a histogram to graph the probability distribution of part (a).
c. Find the probability that a British nurse selected at random in 1851 would be 60 years of age or older.
