These values split a data set into four parts, where each part contains the same number of data values
What are quartiles?
100
This is the letter that represents a standard score
What is z
100
This is the mnemonic we use to help us remember what to say when we describe a graph
What is SOCS
100
These are the other two classes Mrs. Scriffiny teaches
What are algebra and calculus
200
The area below z = -1
What is 0.1587 or about 16%
200
This type of plot shows the five-number summary
What is a boxplot?
200
This is what "units" we say the standard score is measured in
What is standard deviations
200
For SOCS, this is what the C stands for
What is Center
200
This is Mrs. Scriffiny's husband's first name
What is Kurt
300
The area between z=-1 and z=1 on Normal curves
What is 68%
300
This measure shows how far data values are from the mean, on the average.
What is standard deviation
300
This is the standard score for a data value that is exactly 1.2 standard deviations below average
What is -1.2
300
This is the other answer we can give besides skewed to describe the shape of a graph
What is symmetric
300
This is where Mrs. Scriffiny went to college
What is CU
400
Area above z=2.91 on a Normal curve?
What is .0019
400
This curve sits entirely above the x-axis and underneath it the area is exactly equal to 1.
What is a density curve?
400
This is the standard score for the 50th percentile
What is 0
400
This is the type of graph we should use in order to show a small data set with lots of repeated values
What is a dotplot
400
This is how long Mrs. Scriffiny has taught at MHS
What is 17 years
500
Area between z=-1.5 and z=0.7 on Normal curve
What is .6912
500
This rule helps us remember how much area is in each part of the Normal curve.
What is the 68-95-99.7 rule
500
This is the number of standard scores away from the average that generally shows an outlier
What is anything bigger than 2 (or smaller than -2)
500
This type of graph should have 6-12 bars and the height of the bar should represent the number or percent of values that fall between the endpoints of the bottom edge.
