Analyze Shape of Data Distribution

What information can be obtained from a stemplot?

• The information that can be obtained from a stemplot includes the standard deviation and variance of the data.

• The information that can be obtained from a stemplot includes the individual data values, the frequency or count of each value, and the overall distribution of the data.

• The information that can be obtained from a stemplot includes the mean, median, and mode of the data.

• The information that can be obtained from a stemplot includes the correlation coefficient between two variables.

The dot plots below show the number of customers at Mr. Burger and Mr. Chicken during rush hour over the course of 10 days. Which statement correctly compares the distribution of the number of customers at each restaurant during rush hour?

• Mr. Burger's number of customers during rush hour, is greater than Mr. Chicken's number of customers during rush hour.

• Mr. Burger's median number of customers during rush hour, is greater than Mr. Chicken's median number of customers during rush hour.

• There is more variability in Mr. Chicken's number of customers during rush hour, than Mr. Burger's number of customers during rush hour.

• There is less variability in Mr. Chicken's number of customers during rush hour, than Mr. Burger's number of customers during rush hour.

What is the shape of the distribution shown?

How can you describe a distribution?

• A distribution can be described by its shape, center, and spread.

• A distribution can be described by its maximum, minimum, and range.

• A distribution can be described by its mean, median, and mode.
