Display the data in a stem-and-leaf plot. 155159 144 129 105 145 126 116 130 114 122 112 112 142 126 118118 108 122 121 109 140 126 119 113 117 118 109 109 119 139139 122 78 133 126 123 145 121 134 124 119 132 133 124 129 112 126 148 147

7. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 7 Solution: Constructing a Stem-and-Leaf Plot The data entries go from a low of 78 to a high of 159. Use the rightmost digit as the leaf.  For instance, 78 = 7 | 8 and 159 = 15 | 9 List the stems, 7 to 15, to the left of a vertical line. For each data entry, list a leaf to the right of its stem. 155159 144 129 105 145 126 116 130 114 122 112 112 142 126 118118 108 122 121 109 140 126 119 113 117 118 109 109 119 139139 122 78 133 126 123 145 121 134 124 119 132 133 124 129 112 126 148 147

8. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 8 Solution: Constructing a Stem-and-Leaf Plot Include a key to identify the values of the data. From the display, you can conclude that more than 50% of the cellular phone users sent between 110 and 130 text messages.

9. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 9 Graphing Quantitative Data Sets Dot plot Each data entry is plotted, using a point, above a horizontal axis Data: 21, 25, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 36, 36, 45 26 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45.

10. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 10 Example: Constructing a Dot Plot Use a dot plot organize the text messaging data. So that each data entry is included in the dot plot, the horizontal axis should include numbers between 70 and 160. To represent a data entry, plot a point above the entry's position on the axis. If an entry is repeated, plot another point above the previous point. 155159 144 129 105 145 126 116 130 114 122 112 112 142 126 118118 108 122 121 109 140 126 119 113 117 118 109 109 119 139139 122 78 133 126 123 145 121 134 124 119 132 133 124 129 112 126 148 147.

11. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 11 Solution: Constructing a Dot Plot From the dot plot, you can see that most values cluster between 105 and 148 and the value that occurs the most is 126. You can also see that 78 is an unusual data value. 155159 144 129 105 145 126 116 130 114 122 112 112 142 126 118118 108 122 121 109 140 126 119 113 117 118 109 109 119 139139 122 78 133 126 123 145 121 134 124 119 132 133 124 129 112 126 148 147.

18. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 18 Graphing Qualitative Data Sets Pareto Chart A vertical bar graph in which the height of each bar represents frequency or relative frequency. The bars are positioned in order of decreasing height, with the tallest bar positioned at the left. Categories Frequency.

19. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 19 Example: Constructing a Pareto Chart In a recent year, the retail industry lost $36.5 billion in inventory shrinkage. Inventory shrinkage is the loss of inventory through breakage, pilferage, shoplifting, and so on. The causes of the inventory shrinkage are administrative error ($5.4 billion), employee theft ($15.9 billion), shoplifting ($12.7 billion), and vendor fraud ($1.4 billion). Use a Pareto chart to organize this data. (Source: National Retail Federation and Center for Retailing Education, University of Florida).

Graph using a scatter plot.  The ordered pairs are graphed as points in a coordinate plane.  Used to show the relationship between two quantitative variables. x y.

22. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 22 Example: Interpreting a Scatter Plot The British statistician Ronald Fisher introduced a famous data set called Fisher's Iris data set. This data set describes various physical characteristics, such as petal length and petal width (in millimeters), for three species of iris. The petal lengths form the first data set and the petal widths form the second data set. (Source: Fisher, R. A., 1936).

23. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 23 Example: Interpreting a Scatter Plot As the petal length increases, what tends to happen to the petal width? Each point in the scatter plot represents the petal length and petal width of one flower..

24. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 24 Solution: Interpreting a Scatter Plot Interpretation From the scatter plot, you can see that as the petal length increases, the petal width also tends to increase..

25. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 25 Graphing Paired Data Sets Time Series Data set is composed of quantitative entries taken at regular intervals over a period of time.  e.g., The amount of precipitation measured each day for one month. Use a time series chart to graph. time Quantitative data.

26. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 26 Example: Constructing a Time Series Chart The table lists the number of cellular telephone subscribers (in millions) for the years 1998 through 2008. Construct a time series chart for the number of cellular subscribers. (Source: Cellular Telecommunication & Internet Association).

27. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 27 Solution: Constructing a Time Series Chart Let the horizontal axis represent the years. Let the vertical axis represent the number of subscribers (in millions). Plot the paired data and connect them with line segments..

28. Copyright © 2015, 2012, and 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. 28 Solution: Constructing a Time Series Chart The graph shows that the number of subscribers has been increasing since 1998, with greater increases recently..
