Ch. 1: Data Analysis Pt.1
Across
- 4. Shows the number of individuals having each value.
- 6. The science and art of collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data.
- 8. A variable that takes number values, like measurements or counts.
- 13. Gives the percent or proportion of individuals that have a specific value for one categorical variable.
- 16. If knowing the value of one variable helps us predict the value of another variable, then this exists between the two variables.
- 18. An attribute that can take different values for different individuals.
Down
- 1. A variable that takes a fixed set of possible values with gaps between them.
- 2. Displays the distribution of a categorical variable as segments of a rectangle, with the area of each segment proportional to the percentage of individuals in each corresponding category.
- 3. A graph that shows each category as a bar. The heights of the bars show the category frequencies or relative frequencies.
- 5. An object described in a set of data. These can be people, animals or things.
- 7. Displays the distribution of a categorical variable for each value of another categorical variable. The bars are grouped together based on one of the categorical variables and placed side by side.
- 9. A variable that assigns labels that place each individual into a particular group.
- 10. The number of times an event has occurred.
- 11. Usually a graph, tells us what values the variable takes and how often it makes those values.
- 12. Shows the proportion or percent of individuals having each value.
- 14. A variable that can take any number in an interval on the number line.
- 15. Is a modified segmented bar graph in which the width of each rectangle is proportional to the number of individuals in the corresponding category.
- 17. Shows each category as a slice of the "pie". The areas of the slices are proportional to the category frequencies or relative frequencies.
