Warm up: Define Mean, Median, and Mode

Tuesday, December 6, 2016 Warm-up Stem and Leaf Plot Notes Practice Homework: Stem and Leaf plot worksheet

Stem and Leaf Plots Stem and Leaf Plots emphasize place value. The stems represent the tens digit and the leaves represent the ones Data points are: (tens) (ones) 22, 24, 25, 28 30, 31, 33 46, 47 53, 55, 55 If you count the leaves, you will know how many data points there are. There are 12 leaves, so you have 12 data points.

Stem and Leaf Plots Put the following values into a stem and leaf plot. 5, 8, 10, 15, 17, 31, 31, 32 (tens) (ones) 5 8 1 0 5 7 2 3 1 1 2

Minimum, Maximum, Range 22 55 33 Minimum = _______ Maximum = _______ minimum point (tens) (ones) Combine the tens and ones 20 + 2 = 22 maximum point Combine the tens and ones 50 + 5 = 55 22 55 33 Minimum = _______ Maximum = _______ Range = _______ (55 – 22)

Median Cross out the smallest and highest leaves together until you find the middle value. If there are 2 middle values, take the average of the 2. (tens) (ones) 31 + 33 = 64 64 ÷ 2 = 32 32 Median = _______

Median If crossing out the leaves confuses you, list the data points out first and then cross them off 22, 24, 25, 28, 30, 31, 33, 46, 47, 53, 55, 55 (tens) (ones) 31 + 33 = 64 64 ÷ 2 = 32 32 Median = _______

Remember: This represents 47 Mode The mode is the value(s) that occurs most often. (tens) (ones) 4 7 Remember: This represents 47 47 Mode = _______ Don’t get confused. The mode is not 7 or 77!

Stem and Leaf Plots Sometimes the stem is the ones place and the leaf is the tenths place Data points are: 2.2, 2.4, 2.5, 2.8 3, 3.1, 3.3 4.6, 4.7 5.3, 5.5, 5.5
