Tonight, please complete the Wayne Gretzky histogram/description and EHHS Bball stemplot/description on the worksheet provided in class (or below).
- First, create the graphical display specified--read directions carefully!
- After you have created your graph, describe the distribution. Use this bulleted list as a "step by step" process to write your answer!
- Start with: "This distribution of ________ is _____ and ____ with ____ apparent outliers."
- This first sentence allows us to identify the context, shape, and comment on any potential outliers
- Next, write a sentence describing any gaps or clusters in the data--be sure to do this in context! Write about gaps/clusters in the number of games Wayne Gretzky played or in the numbers of points East Hartford scored, not "the data"
- Be sure to include where these gaps/clusters are located!
- Now, let's add some new stuff:
- For center, we can use the mean or median--enter the data in your calculator to find the 1 Var Stats and comment on both! "The mean number of games Wayne Gretzky played per season is ______, and the median number of games played is _____."
- For spread, we can do the same--calculate either the range or IQR, and write a sentence providing this info!
- Finally, write one last sentence--summarize what this data tells us about our context! What does the data tell us about the number of games Gretzky played per season? Or about the number of points the EHHS bball team scored per game?+
