2 Statistics & Graphs Quote A man who is not somewhat of a poet can never be a mathematician. Karl Weierstrass (VEER strass)

3 Statistics & Graphs Puzzle – Are you really awake? A certain five letter word becomes shorter when you add two letters to it. What is the word? SHORT

4 Statistics & Graphs Example 1-1a 61 a Means, Medians, Modes and Ranges Mean =Average of the data. -Add them up and divide by the number of items you have Median =Middle value of data -Arrange data in order, choose the middle value -If there is no middle number, the Median is the average of the middle numbers Mode =Value that occurs the most -Data with no repeats has no mode -Several repeats occurring same number of times has several modes Range =High value minus the low value

5 Statistics & Graphs 61b Means, Medians, Modes and Ranges What is the Mean, Median, Mode and Range for the data? 8, 7, 20, 8, 22, 7, 7, 9, 4, 28 Mean =12 Median =4, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 20, 22, 28 Since there are two middle numbers take the average of the two middle numbers which is 8, The median is 8 Mode =7Range =28-4 = 24  12, 8, 7, 24

6 Statistics & Graphs 61c Means, Medians, Modes and Ranges For the first three sets of numbers below, the value of x represents the same type of measurement for central tendency. Find the value of x for the fourth set of numbers 5 15 20 25 50 x=20 4 8 16 28 40 52 x=22 16 22 22 22 24 x=22 13 13 17 23 29 29 x =___ 20 What type of measurement does x represent?___________Median

7 Statistics & Graphs 61d Activity 1) Form a group of four or five people of the same gender 2) Measure each persons height and total arm length in cm -Record this information alongside their name 4) Calculate mean, median, mode & range for the class. (M & F) Do this for height and arm length separately for M & F. Have in your notebook the height and arm length of everyone in this class….. You will need this data later…! 3) Place your name, height, and arm length on the board -copy this information into your notebook

8 Statistics & Graphs 60 Quote The pursuit of an idea is as exciting as the pursuit of a whale. Henri Poincare (pain ca RAY)

10 Statistics & Graphs 60a Central Tendency – Find data (ex2) Martha averaged 21 points per game last season and was the leading scorer on her basketball team. This year she has already scored 102 points in 5 games. Which equation can be used to find P, the number of points she must score in the 6th game to tie her last year’s average? (ex1) Catherine scored 152 and 165 for her first two bowling games. What score will she have to achieve on her third game to have an average of 170?

11 Statistics & Graphs 60b Central Tendency – Find data (ex3) A group of four items have a mean of 63. What would the value of the fifth item have to be in order to produce a mean of 57? (ex4) You are shipping items for a shipping company. The items weigh 32, 34, 23, 35, 45 pounds each. You are going to add one more item weighing 52 pounds. Which would increase more by adding the last package, then mean or the median?

13 Statistics & Graphs 59 Puzzle – How many words are there? There is a word in the English language that the first two letters signify a male, the first three letters signify a female, the first four signify a great male and the whole word signify a great female. What is the word? Heroin

14 Statistics & Graphs 59a – Frequency distributions and line plots Frequency distribution = a display of how FREQUENTLY something occurred. Line plots = a graphical display using a number line to show data. Ex1. The pulse rates of students before physical education class are recorded in the table. Pulse Rate 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 Number of Students 3 4 0 0 5 2 1 4 3 1 How many students had a pulse rate lower than 74? _______ 14

16 Statistics & Graphs 59c – Frequency distributions and line plots Ex3. The numbers below represent the ages of the players on a softball team. Make a line plot to show the data. 29, 26, 25, 32, 27, 25, 32, 26, 24, 25 What numbers do we need on the number line? _______24-32 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 x xxxxxx x xx x

17 Statistics & Graphs 59d – Activity Construct a line plot using the height of the people in your class. Be sure you are using the height and make it look orderly. This is to be turned in for grading. On you paper, include your names, date and class period Don’t forget to label your graph so we know what it means. Use a different color for plots of the Boys and Girls Do this again for the Arm Span measurements.

18 Statistics & Graphs Quote There are two dangerous extremes. One is to shut reason out, the other is to let nothing in. Blaise Pascal (pass CAL)

27 Statistics & Graphs 57b Scatter Plots The table shows the relationship between the time a student spends typing each week and his percent improvement on speed assessments. On graph paper, make a scatter plot of percent improvement vs. practice hours and then draw the line of best fit. Using the line of best fit, estimate what percent gain would be expected if the number of practice hours is 4 hours.

28 Statistics & Graphs 57c Scatter Plots % Improvement 60 50 40 30 20 10 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 Practice Time Vs. Improvement Practice Hours 4 hours?  Approx 12% imp

31 Statistics & Graphs 56 Puzzle - Ships There are two ships of equal size and strength. One is made of wood and one is made of steel. Can you explain which is heavier?

32 Statistics & Graphs 56a Histograms Histogram =histogram is a graphical display of frequencies. A histogram shows what proportion of cases fall into each of several or many specified categories. The categories are usually specified as non- overlapping intervals of some variable. The categories (bars) must be adjacent Relative frequency= The frequency that something occurred divided by how many samples were taken.
