Mean (the largest value minus the smallest value) (the average of a set of numbers) (the middle value, or average of two middle values) Range (the number that occurs most often in a set of data) Mode Line Graph Bar Graph Frequency Table A frequency table shows the totals of the tally marks. Ranger Bike Tally Total Outdoor Starburst Mountain Total 19 10 2 4 3 Stem–and–Leaf Plot A stem-and-leaf plot shows data arranged by place value. 15, 20, 28, 31, 35, 46, 49, 52 (arranged from least to greatest) Stem (tens digit) Leaf (ones digit) 5 0 8 1 5 6 9 2 1 2 3 4 5 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 10 20 30 40 50 10 10 20 30 40 50 20 30 40 50 10 10 20 30 40 50 20 30 40 50 Measures of Central Tendency Organizing Data Box–and–Whisker Plot Displaying Data Scatter Plots 99 57 = 42 57 & 99 57, 57, 62, 64, 67, 68, 75, 79, 80, 84, 89, 99, 99 = 75.4 Central tendency is a way to describe a data set using one number. A box-and-whisker plot is an easy way to view the distribution of data. Smallest value: First quartile: Median: Third quartile: Largest value: smallest value (57) first quartile (63) third quartile (86.50) largest value (99) median (75) Order the data from smallest to largest value. 13 Median 75 Step 1 Step 2 Draw a number line and plot the values above. Draw the box-and-whiskers.
