1 Data Distribution Investigation 1

2 1.1 Variability in Categorical Data 2 Types of Data Categorical (Month Born, Favorite Band) Numerical (State Populations) Categorical Data – data that has specific labels or names for categories. Green In 1 bag Total M & M’s % GreenDecimal% 5545 54 0.0929 %

3 1.2 Variability in Numerical Counts Numerical Data – Data that has specific counts or measures. Trend - To have a general direction or tendency.

4 1.3 Variability in Numerical Measurements MinimumSmallest quantity Maximum Greatest quantity Outlier Unusually high or low data values in a distribution. Clusters Sections of data that are close together. Holes Gaps in data values in a distribution.

5 1.4 Two Kinds of Variability The ordered value bar graph shows the data in order from minimum to maximum values. The line plots shows the frequency of each measurement.
