Box and Whisker Plots
Frequency Tables
100
An average of a set of numbers.
What is mean?
100
The difference of a data value and the mean of a data set.
What is the Deviation from the Mean?
100
A graph with points plotted to show a possible relationship between two sets of data.
What is scatter plots?
100
Displays the five number summary of a data set and can be used to make inferences about the variation of a data set.
What is box plot?
100
Shows the frequency of each data value. If the data is divided into intervals, the table shows the frequency of each interval.
What is Frequency table?
200
This is the middle number in a set of numbers that is arranged from lowest to the highest.
What is median?
200
The average deviation of the data from the mean.
What is Mean Absolute Deviation?
200
A graph that shows the residuals on the vertical axis and the independent variable on the horizontal axis.
What is Residual Plot?
200
What is the name of the term that displays the minimum value, lower quartile, median, upper quartile, and maximum number on a box plot.
What is Five Number Summary?
200
The percent frequency or probability of a data value appearing.
What is Relative Frequency Table?
300
This is a special percentile that divides the ordered data set into 4 equal parts. Each equal part is 25%.
What is Quartiles?
300
1. Find the mean of the data set 2. Determine how far each term is from the mean 3. Add your values from Step 2. 4. Divide your sum from Step 3 by the number of terms in the data set.
What is the steps to find the MAD?
300
This plot arranges data by dividing each data value into two parts. It allows you to see each data value.
What is Stem-and-Leaf plot?
300
A box plot can present a good representation of a data set's distribution. For a ________ distribution, the median should be close to the middle of the box and the two whiskers should be about the same length.
What is normal?
300
Definition of Two-Way Frequency Table
What is a useful way to organize data that can be categorized by two variables?
400
Consists of the minimum, maximum, lower quartile, upper quartile, and the median of a data set.
What is the 5-number summary?
400
The data displays the test scores from the Unit 3 test: 78, 83, 60, 95, 87 What is the MAD?
What is 9.28?
400
The measures of central tendency to identify different real world situations. The three common measures of central tendency are the mode, the median, and the mean.
What is Frequency Bar Graphs?
400
The distribution has a longer tail on the left.
What is skewed left?
400
Shows the frequency of all data values less than or equal to a given value.
What is Cumulative frequency?
500
Find the 5-number summary for the following data set: 9, 3, 19, 4, 8, 4
What is 4 (minimum), 19 (maximum), 4 (lower quartile), 6 (median), and 9 (upper quartile).
500
The top 4 finishing times (in seconds) for swimmers in the 50-yard freestyle and the 100-yard freestyle are given. Compare the spread of the data for the two sets using the mean absolute deviation. (50-yard: 24.33, 24.44, 24.75, 25.02) (100 yard: 52.84, 52.98, 53.02, 53.15)
What is the 50-yard data set has a higher MAD than the 100-yard data set?
500
A frequency bar graph (histogram) is unimodal if there is one hump, bimodal if there are two humps, and __________ if there are many humps.
What is multimodal?
500
Sometimes, data sets are characterized by extreme values that differ greatly from other values. These extreme values are called _____________.
What is outliers?
500
There are four steps to make a frequency table. List the steps.
What is identify the least and greatest values, divide the data into equal intervals, list the intervals in the first column of the table, and give the table a title?
