When's Day HW!

Tonight please complete the "Pop Quiz: Histograms" worksheet provided in class (don't worry, it's just practice for our test on Monday, not an actual pop quiz).

Then, add this question to the back of your paper--you must do this to receive full credit for your homework!

  • Copy the table of summary values onto the back of your paper (this is also on your handout of chapter 4 slides)
  • Then, use this summary table to create a boxplot! (this is how this may appear on Monday's test)!
  • DO NOT use your calculator to create the boxplot--on the test you will only be given summary values (like this) and will not have the full data set, so you cannot use the calculator--you must create the boxplot by hand
  • Use your notes from the summer--if that doesn't work, watch the AP Stats Guy video on creating a boxplot!
    • First, draw your x axis and label it both in words and numbers. Title your graph.
    • Next, plot Q1, Median, and Q3 (the box)
    • Now, calculate the fences to determine if there are outliers; you must show this work
    • Plot any outliers
    • Now, draw the arms to the highest and lowest data values (from the summary table) that are not outliers!
Tomorrow in class we'll get into some "new stuff" after we answer any homework questions--I'll see you there!

Oh, and here's the rest of the homework in case you lost yours or you were out:
