More data on right

18
Q

What to do when making stemplot

A

Always make a key!

19
Q

When to use back to back stemplot

A

To compare 2 categorical variables

20
Q

How to find center or midpoint of histogram

A

Look for the value in the middle of your categorical variables

21
Q

How are dotplots stemplot and histogram similar

A

They all use quantitative variables

22
Q

Range

A

Difference of largest and smallest value in data

23
Q

Resistance

A

Mean is not resistant
Median is resistant

24
Q

How are outliers identified in box plots

A

Data point identified outside the whiskers of the box plot, first found with 1.5*IQR rule

25
Q

Variance

A

The average squared deviation

26
Q

Steps to find standard deviation

A

Step 1: Find the mean.
Step 2: For each data point, find the square of its distance to the mean.
Step 3: Sum the values from Step 2.
Step 4: Divide by the number of data points.
Step 5: Take the square root.

27
Q

Is standard deviation ever less than zero

A

No it is always greater than or equal to 0
It equals zero When all observations have the same value

28
Q

Is standard deviation resistant

A

No

29
Q

4 step process

A

State: what’s the question you’re trying to answer
Plan: how will you go about answering the question? What statistical techniques does this problem call for?
Do: make graphs and carry out needed calculations
Conclude: give your conclusions in the setting of the real world problem

30
Q

Marginal distribution

A

Look at the margins of the table(in 2 way look far right at totals)
Can be represented as counts or percentage

31
Q

Conditional distribution

A

Based on the colum or row that condition is based on, strictly circle and focus that whole column and row and base your percentages from that total

Based on percentages

32
Q

Determine if marginal or conditional distribution:
Distribution fo % correct

A

Marginal
So you will use the total total value
And it can be % or counts
Use margins

33
Q

Determine if marginal or conditional distribution:
% of males in sample own their homes?

A

Conditional distribution
Only use percents

Use that on column(or row)that the condition is based off of!

34
Q

Determine if marginal or conditional distribution:
Distribution of scored among those who studied greater than 60 mins

A

Conditional distribution

Use percents

Only use that column(or row)!

35
Q

when do u use median and IQR vs mean and standard deviation

A

If the distribution is symmetric, then use the Mean & Standard Deviation. Otherwise If the distribution is skewed, then use the Median & IQR becuase exit is resistant

36
Q

Histogram bib width of 5

A

5 goes in the next bar
1st bar has 0,1,2,3,4
