Describing the Distribution of Data: Analyzing the Shape of a Graph

This lesson covers how to describe data distribution by analyzing graph shapes. It explains line plots, bell curves, skewed graphs, clusters, peaks, and uniform distribution. The focus is on understanding how data is grouped and represented visually, rather than just calculating statistical measures like mean or mode.

What is the significance of the mode in a line plot?

Describe the characteristics of a bell curve.

What does it mean for a graph to be skewed?

Explain the difference between a cluster and a peak in a graph.

What is uniform distribution and when does it occur?
