Twosday Homework

Tonight, please complete the following in your textbook:

Page 65: 3, 9, 11

**To create the stemplot for #11, be sure to round each of the data values to two decimal places (because it's $), THEN create the stemplot!

**For #3, think about "where most of the data would fall." If most of the data would be the left (low numbers), our distribution would be skewed right. If most data would fall on the right (high #'s), our distribution would be skewed left. If most of our data is in the middle (with some higher/lower values), we might expect our data to be uniform. And we expect our data to be evenly spread across all numbers, the distribution would be uniform.

Tomorrow in class we will continue to take notes on "describing distributions," and hopefully finish. Then, on Thursday we can try to squeeze in some more in-class examples, and on Friday we'll try for a chapter 4 quiz....at least that's the plan for now!

Have a great Tuesday! See you all tomorrow!
