Explain the meaning of the accompanying percentiles. (a) The 5th percentile of the head circumference of males 3 to 5 months of age in a certain city is 41.5 cm. (b) The 95th percentile of the waist circumference of females 2 years of age in a certain city is 49.8 cm. (c) Anthropometry involves the measurement of the human body. One goal of these measurements is to assess how body measurements may be changing over time. The following table represents the standing height of males aged 20 years or older for various age groups in a certain city in 2015. Based on the percentile measurements of the different age groups, what might you conclude?
