1. Target: pie charts and histograms. Probabilities & Data Displays

2. Solve each proportion. 1. 2. 3. How many degrees are in a circle? Warm-Up

3.  Pie Chart: A circle graph that shows information as sectors of a circle.  Frequency: The # of times an item occurs.  Histogram: A bar graph that displays the frequency of numerical data in equal-sized intervals.

4. Sally surveyed 20 students to find their favorite sport. 10 chose basketball, 3 chose baseball & 7 chose football. Draw a pie chart to display this data.  Write a proportion for basketball.  Solve. x = 180°  Write a proportion for baseball.  Solve. x = 54°  Football is the remaining sector. 360° – 180° – 54° = 126° Example 1

5. Anthony interviewed classmates to determine their preference for sweets. He made the following pie chart. Find the probability someone will prefer chocolate.  Total number of students interviewed.  27 + 18 + 15 = 60  P(prefer chocolate) =  The probability someone will prefer chocolate is or 0.45 or 45%. Example 2

6. a. Which interval in Erin’s histogram has the fewest number of students?  70-74. It only has 2 students. b. Find P(student is in interval 62–66).  Students in interval: 5 Total students: 20 c. Use Erin’s information to predict the number of students in her school out of 860 students who are in the interval 62 – 66.  Proportion using the ratio from previous answer.  Use cross products to solve. 4x = 860 x = 215  About 215 students at Erin’s school are between 62 and 66 inches tall. Example 3

8. Colin surveyed 10 students to find their favorite type of book. 3 chose sports books, 5 chose fiction, and 2 chose math. Draw a pie chart to display this data.

9. Do you find it easier to make a pie chart or a histogram? Why? Do you find it easier to read a pie chart or a histogram? Why?
