Warm Up Find the mean, median, mode, range, and outliers of the following data. 11, 7, 2, 7, 6, 12, 9, 10, 8, 6, 4, 8, 8, 7, 4, 7, 8, 8, 6, 5, 9 How does an outlier affect the data set? Draw an example of a histogram that is skewed, and draw an example of one that is symmetrical. Of 35 judges’ scores awarded during a gymnastics meet, 28 are less than or equal to 7.5. What is the percentile rank of a score of 7.5?

Box and Whisker Diagrams.
130 140 150 160 170 180 190 Boys Girls cm Box and Whisker Diagrams. Box plots are useful for comparing two or more sets of data like that shown below for heights of boys and girls in a class.

2. The boys are taller on average.
Question: Gemma recorded the heights in cm of girls in the same class and constructed a box plot from the data. The box plots for both boys and girls are shown below. Use the box plots to choose some correct statements comparing heights of boys and girls in the class. Justify your answers. Drawing a Box Plot. 130 140 150 160 170 180 190 Boys Girls cm 1. The girls are taller on average. 3. The girls show less variability in height. 4. The boys show less variability in height. 5. The smallest person is a girl. 6. The tallest person is a boy.

Comparing Box and Whisker Plot
We can see that in general the scores in the first approval poll are lower and not as wide spread as those of the second approval poll. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Approval Poll One Approval Poll Two
5
Which has the highest death rate?
How many years of smoking has the least amount of variability? Which one has the smallest median?
6
Which type of house has a higher average cost?
Which house has the highest price? Which house has the lowest price? Which has the highest median? Which type has a larger spread, or variability in pricing?

STANDARD DEVIATION
8
Depart from what’s normal
Standard Deviation: tells us how far, on average, our data points are from the mean. EX: Given the following data set: 2, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 7, 9 The mean is 5, and the standard deviation is 2. That means that on average, the data points are 2 units away from the mean of 5.
9
Calculate Standard Deviation
10
Calculate Standard Deviation
Luckily, we can also find it in our calculator by: Going to STAT then Edit Typing our data set into L1 Pressing STAT then CALC and 1-Var Stats You will see a lot of numbers. The standard deviation looks like this: σx = **If it is a number with a lot of decimals, you can round to the hundredths place (2 digits after the decimal)
11
Other Fun Things From the Calc.
x= minX= ∑x= maxX= n = Med=
12
Examples: Find the standard deviation of: , 19.4, -33.1, -6.4, -8.2, 2.9, 4.3, -21, 1.7, and -21
13
Examples (cont.): Find the standard deviation of:
14
Using Standard Deviation
If you are given mean and standard deviation and told to find a particular value... Start with the mean Add or subtract the standard deviation from the mean until you get what you need.
15
Using Standard Deviation
Mrs. Inscoe graded all of the Algebra I quizzes and found that they had a mean of 80 and a standard deviation of 4. She tells you that you earned a score of 1 standard deviation above the mean, but that another student earned a score 1 standard deviation below the mean. What are your two scores?
16
Using Standard Deviation
You look up your favorite basketball player’s scoring average and find that his mean points scored per game is 22 and his standard deviation is 6. If he scored 2 standard deviations below the mean in his game against the Bobcats, how many points did he score in that game? What about if he had scored 1 standard deviation above the mean?
17
Using Standard Deviation
Drivers in Charlotte commute on average 8 miles to get to work, with a standard deviation of 2 miles. If you have to commute 3 standard deviations above the mean, how far do you have to go to commute to work?
18
Shapes of Data Uniform- roughly the same height throughout
Symmetric- you could draw a vertical line that divides the graph into two parts that are close to mirror images Skewed- 1 peak, not in the center (left, and right)
19
Even More Vocabulary Cumulative Frequency Table- a frequency table that has an additional column that calculates a total for the data at each interval
20
Height Data Height Interval Frequency Cumulative Frequency 4’7” – 5’
5’1” – 5’6” 5’7” – 6’ 6’1” – 6’6”
21
You Try! Complete the Frequency Table
22
Still More Vocabulary Histogram - a graph that shows data from a frequency table Height shows frequency of the interval No gaps between bars Bars have equal widths

Height Data
24
Box & Whisker Plots Q1 is the lower quartile & represents the values in the lower 4th (bottom 25%) of the data Q3 is the upper quartile & represents the values in the upper 4th (top 25%) of the data Q2 is the median The box from Q1 to Q3 is the middle 50% of the data known as the interquartile range
25
Five Number Summary Min value Q1 Q2 Q3 Max Value
26
Box & Whisker Plots Describe the data represented by the box and whisker plot. Include the extreme values and quartiles. 1. 2.
27
Examples Find the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum of each data set. 18, 14, 15.8, 9, 12, 16, 20, 16, 13, 15 125, 80, 140, 135, 126, 140, 350, 75
28
Outliers If the data set has outliers, they are represented by bullets, do not include them in the whiskers. Remember these outliers skew the mean and standard deviation! Outlier is any element of a set of data that is at least 1.5 interquartile ranges less than the lower quartile (Q1) or greater than the upper quartile (Q3) Q1 – 1.5IQR Q IQR
29
Outliers Example: Identify any outliers.
12, 12, 17, 23, 23, 23, 24, 24, 25, 26, 26, 28, 28, 29, 30, 31, 34, 36, 40, 46
30
Making a Box & Whisker Plot
Daily attendance: 29, 24, 28, 32, 30, 31, 26, 33, 14 In the calculator, enter data in L1 and choose the box and whisker icon in the StatPlot menu.

32
Percentiles Percentiles separate data sets into 100 equal parts. The percentile rank of a data value is the percentage of data values that are less than or equal to that value. Examples: Of 25 test scores, eight are less than or equal to 75 and seven scores are between 75 and 85. What is the percentile rank of a test score of 75? What is the percentile rank of a test score of 85?
33
Examples (cont.) Of 10 bowling scores, six are less than or equal to What is the percentile rank of a bowling score of 120? Of 35 judges’ scores awarded during a gymnastics meet, 28 are less than or equal to 7.5. What is the percentile rank of a score of 7.5?
