400

what does a box and whisker plot display?

A box-and-whisker plot displays:

  • the minimum
  • lower quartile (Q1)
  • median
  • upper quartile (Q3)
  • and maximum

This is called the five-number summary.

500

What is the average grade for a student who's grades are: 13, 27.3, 69, 69, 23, 97.

298.3 / 6 = 49.7

500

Median = 78 

q1 = 45.5 

q2 = 99.5 

IQR= 99.5-45.5 = 54

500

What are the measures of center that you can find or calculate by looking at a dot-plot?

  • Mean
  • Median
  • Mode
500

What vocabulary word describes a data distribution with a long tail stretching to the right?

answer is right skewed.

500

What do we call how spread out a set of data is?

Variability tells how spread out the data is.

Common ways to measure variability are:

  • Range → largest value minus smallest value
  • Interquartile Range (IQR) → Q3 minus Q1
  • Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) → average distance from the mean
