2. Learning Goal  You will understand and use the math vocabulary of chapter 2 to solve problems.

3. Mean  The sum of the data divided by the number of data items  Examples 7, 7, 3, 2, 6 Step 1 (add numbers together) 7+7+3+2+6 = 25 Step 2 (divide added amount by the amount of numbers you added) 25/5 = 5 You will understand and use the math vocabulary of chapter 2 to solve problems. 2-1

4. Outlier  Data item that is much greater or less than the other data items  Examples 7, 6, 7, 8, 25 The outlier will change a mean to be greater or lower You will understand and use the math vocabulary of chapter 2 to solve problems. 2-1

5. Median  Is the middle number in a set of ordered data  Examples 4, 5, 1, 6, 2 Step 1 (put the numbers in order) 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 Step 2 (cross off numbers until you find the middle one) 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 You will understand and use the math vocabulary of chapter 2 to solve problems. 2-2
