Thursday = STUDY!

Tomorrow we will start class with our chapter 4 vocab quiz! Your only homework tonight is to study!

Here is the list of terms/concepts/ideas that may appear on tomorrow's quiz (only 13-15 are on the actual quiz, but you have to know them all!):

1. Response Variable (check the definition from your chapter 2 quiz!)
2. Relative (check the definition from your chapter 2 quiz!)
3. Boxplot (a graphical display that shows the 5 number summary with outliers)
4. Histogram (a graphical display that shows us the different values of a variable, and the frequencies for those values)
5. Stemplot (a graphical display that shows the distribution of a data set and preserves the original values in a data set)
6. Range (a measure of spread; max - min)
7. IQR (Interquartile Range) (a measure of spread; Q3 - Q1)
8. Median (a measure of center; the middle value in a data set)
9. Mean (a measure of center; the average of the values in a data set)
10. Skewed Left (a distribution where most data values are on the right/higher values, with a few low values)
11. Skewed Right (a distribution where most data values are on the left/lower values, with a few high values)
12. Center (an attempt to summarize a data set with one value; a "typical value" for a data set)
13. Spread (measures how much our data varies, or how tightly values are clustered around the center; also known as variability)
14. Outlier (a data value that falls outside the calculated fences; an extreme data value that falls away from the rest of the values in a data set)
15. Describe a distribution (we always describe SOCS--shape, outliers/gaps/clusters, center, and spread)
16. There are two questions that give you a graph and ask you to describe the shape in two ways (look at yesterday's stamp for review--be sure to know all the different ways to describe shape--unimodal, bimodal, multimodal, uniform, symmetric, skewed left, skewed right)
17. Measures of spread (range, standard deviation, IQR)
18. Measures of center (mean, median)
19. Quantitative Data Displays (dotplot, boxplot, ogive, histogram, stemplot, timeplot)
20. Categorical Data Displays (frequency table, pie chart, bar chart, relative frequency table, relative bar chart)
