2. Definitions A piece of data is a single response to an experiment. The distribution of a variable refers to the way its values are spread over all possible values. A frequency distribution is a listing of observed values and the corresponding frequency of occurrence of each value. Category, Class, Class Interval, or bin is how the data is sorted or recorded. It may be a single item or it may be a group/interval. Can't Type? press F11 Can’t Hear? Check: Speakers, Volume or Re-Enter Seminar Put ? in front of Questions so it is easier to see them. 2

3. Frequency is how often the data occurs. Tally (optional) sometimes used to make it easier to sort the data. Total (row) is the total of each column. Cumulative Frequency is the sum of the data to that row, so the last data row should have the same value as the Total row. Relative Frequency of a row is the percent of that row compared to all the data. Can't Type? press F11 Can’t Hear?

10. Definitions of Graphs Bar Chart: the data is across the bottom & frequency is up the side, though it can also be switched, often with gaps between the columns. – Dot Plot: shows the frequency with the number of dots in the column. – Pictograph: can be a dot plot, but with pictures instead of dots. It is any graph that has pictures in it. – Pareto Chart: the columns are sorted by frequency. – Histogram: is a Bar Chart squished together. Line Graph, Line Chart, or Frequency Polygon: is a line graph with observed values on its horizontal scale and frequencies on it vertical scale. – Time Series Diagram: the horizontal is the time. Stem and Leaf Plot has details in the video (if time at end of seminar): http://www.ramshillfarm.com/Math/Math_Rules/StemAndLeaf.swf http://www.ramshillfarm.com/Math/Math_Rules/StemAndLeaf.swf Pie Charts: compare parts of one or more components of the whole to the whole. 10
