As the name of the update implies, we conducted a statistical study of the ages of people from various racial backgrounds who were killed by police, taking into account both age and race from the entire dataset. Asian (A), Black (B), Native American (N), Other (O), Hispanic (H), and White (W) are the different racial categories. We computed statistical metrics for the ages of the people in each racial category using Mathematica, including the median, mean, standard deviation, variance, skewness, and kurtosis.
the outcome
Asian Victims (A):
Age on Median: 35 years
Mean Years of Age: 35.96

Black Victims (B):
Age on Median: 31 years
Mean Years of Age: 32.93
11.39 Standard Deviation; 129.70 Variance
Hispanic/H victimization:
Age on Median: 32 year
33.59 years of age
Deviation Standard: 10.74
Difference: 115.42
Victims of Native American (N):
Age on Median: 32 years
Average Age: 32.65%
Deviation: 80.90 Standard Deviation: 8.99
Other Victims (O):
Age on Median: 31 years
Averaging 33.47 years old
11.80 Standard Deviation; 139.15 Variance
White victims (W):
Age on median: 38 years
Averaging 40.13 years old
13.16 Standard Deviation; 173.24 Variance
This was only a portion of what we covered in class; the next report will have additional information on hypothesis testing and related topics.
