1 Chapter 8 Descriptive Statistics

2 Dot Plots Dot plot:Dot plot: Horizontal axis represents the data values. Horizontal axis represents the data values. Vertical axis represents the frequency of the data values. Vertical axis represents the frequency of the data values. One dot is for each occurrence of each data value. One dot is for each occurrence of each data value.

3 Example 1 Here’s a dot plot for the test scores: 26, 32, 54, 62, 67, 70, 71, 71, 74, 76, 80, 81, 84, 87, 87, 87, 89, 93, 95, 96.Here’s a dot plot for the test scores: 26, 32, 54, 62, 67, 70, 71, 71, 74, 76, 80, 81, 84, 87, 87, 87, 89, 93, 95, 96.

4 Stem-and-Leaf Plot Stem-and-leaf plot:Stem-and-leaf plot: The digit furthest to the right is the leaf. The digit furthest to the right is the leaf. The other digits are called the stem. The other digits are called the stem. The stems and leaves are put in vertical columns, with the leaves in numerical order. The stems and leaves are put in vertical columns, with the leaves in numerical order.

5 Example 2 Here’s a stem- and-leaf plot for test scores: 26, 32, 54, 62, 67, 70, 71, 71, 74, 76, 80, 81, 84, 87, 87, 87, 89, 93, 95, 96.Here’s a stem- and-leaf plot for test scores: 26, 32, 54, 62, 67, 70, 71, 71, 74, 76, 80, 81, 84, 87, 87, 87, 89, 93, 95, 96.

6 Example 2, cont’d Notice:Notice: A cluster of values between 54 and 96. A cluster of values between 54 and 96. A gap between 54 and 32. A gap between 54 and 32. 32 and 26 are outliers, separated from the other scores by a large gap. 32 and 26 are outliers, separated from the other scores by a large gap.

7 Example 3 Make a stem-and-leaf plot for pizza prices: $9.20, $10.50, $10.70, $10.80, $12.00, $12.10, $12.20, $12.20, $12.30.Make a stem-and-leaf plot for pizza prices: $9.20, $10.50, $10.70, $10.80, $12.00, $12.10, $12.20, $12.20, $12.30. The dollar amounts will be the stems and the cents will be the leaves.The dollar amounts will be the stems and the cents will be the leaves.

9 Bar Graphs Bar graph: any graph in which the height or length of bars is used to represent quantities.Bar graph: any graph in which the height or length of bars is used to represent quantities. A histogram is a special type of bar graph. A histogram is a special type of bar graph.

10 Example 4 Create a bar graph to display the data in the table.Create a bar graph to display the data in the table.

12 Histograms Histogram:Histogram: Data is separated into intervals called measurement classes or bins. Data is separated into intervals called measurement classes or bins. Interval sizes are chosen depending on the situation.Interval sizes are chosen depending on the situation. Frequency table: shows the number of data values in each bin.Frequency table: shows the number of data values in each bin.

13 Example 5 Make a histogram for test scores: 26, 32, 54, 62, 67, 70, 71, 71, 74, 76, 80, 81, 84, 87, 87, 87, 89, 93, 95, 96.Make a histogram for test scores: 26, 32, 54, 62, 67, 70, 71, 71, 74, 76, 80, 81, 84, 87, 87, 87, 89, 93, 95, 96. A frequency table, with bins of 10, is already made.A frequency table, with bins of 10, is already made.

14 Example 5, cont’d The height of each bar is equal to the frequency of the bin.The height of each bar is equal to the frequency of the bin.

15 Example 5, cont’d The choice of bin size affects the appearance of the graph.The choice of bin size affects the appearance of the graph. The same data set with a bin size of 5 is shown. The same data set with a bin size of 5 is shown.

16 Example 5, cont’d The same data set with a bin size of 20 is shown. The same data set with a bin size of 20 is shown.

17 Question: Why is the histogram with bin size 10 the best choice to represent this data?

18 Relative Frequency Histograms Relative frequency histogram:Relative frequency histogram: Relative Frequency (percent of the whole data set) of each bin is calculated. Relative Frequency (percent of the whole data set) of each bin is calculated. The height of each bar equals the relative frequency of the bin. The height of each bar equals the relative frequency of the bin. Relative Frequency Table: can help draw a relative frequency histogram.Relative Frequency Table: can help draw a relative frequency histogram.
