Understandable Statistics Seventh Edition By Brase and Brase Prepared by: Lynn Smith Gloucester County College Chapter Two Organizing Data
2
A graphical display should: Show the data Induce the viewer to think about the substance of the graphic Avoid distorting the message
3
Bar Graph bars of uniform width uniformly spaced may be vertical or horizontal lengths represent quantities being compared provide title, labels for each bar and lengths of bars
4
Pareto Chart tool of quality control start with a bar chart arrange bars in decreasing order of frequency frequently used to investigate causes of problems
5
Circle Graph (Pie Chart) shows division of whole into component parts label parts with appropriate percentages of the whole
6
Time Plot Shows data values in chronological order time on horizontal scale variable being measured on vertical scale connect data points with line segments
7
Time Series Time series are data sets composed of similar measurements taken at regular intervals over time. A time plot can reveal some features of a time series.
8
Histogram Differences from a bar chart: bars have equal width and always touch width of bars represents quantity heights of bars represent frequency f Measured quantity
9
To construct a histogram from raw data: Decide on the number of classes (5 to 15 is customary). Find a convenient class width. Organize the data into a frequency table. Find the class midpoints and the class boundaries. Sketch the histogram.
10
Finding class width 1.Compute: 2.Increase the value computed to the next highest whole number
11
Class Width Raw Data: 10.2 18.7 22.3 20.0 6.3 17.8 17.1 5.0 2.4 7.9 0.3 2.5 8.5 12.5 21.4 16.5 0.4 5.2 4.1 14.3 19.5 22.5 0.0 24.7 11.4 Use 5 classes. 24.7 – 0.0 5 = 4.94 Round class width up to 5.
12
Frequency Table Determine class width. Create the classes. May use smallest data value as lower limit of first class and add width to get lower limit of next class. Tally data into classes. Compute midpoints for each class. Determine class boundaries.

Exploratory Data Analysis A field of statistical study useful in detecting patterns and extreme data values Tools used include histograms and stem- and-leaf displays
46
Stem and Leaf Display Raw Data: 35, 45, 42, 45, 41, 32, 25, 56, 67, 76, 65, 53, 53, 32, 34, 47, 43, 31
47
To make a Stem-and-Leaf Display Digits of each data value has two parts: left = “stem,” right = “leaf” Align all stems in vertical column in increasing order with a vertical line to their right. Place all leaves with same stem on same row as the stem. Rearrange in increasing order Label
