Across
- 1. A letter we use to mean different numbers
- 3. A point where a curve meets the x-axis
- 7. A measure of the variability, or spread, of a distribution, calculated by a method similar to the method for calculating the MAD (mean absolute deviation)
- 8. A number between -1 and 1 that describes the strength and direction of a linear association between two numerical variables
- 13. The distance from 0
- 15. A relationship between two numerical variables is strong if the data is tightly clustered around the best fit line
- 16. A distribution with a vertical line of symmetry in the center of the graphical representation
- 17. A distribution where one side of the distribution has more values farther from the bulk of the data than the other side
- 18. The set of all of its possible output values
- 19. A relationship between two numerical variables is weak if the data is loosely spread around the best fit line
Down
- 2. A fraction or the opposite of a fraction
- 4. Dots in the coordinate plane representing pairs of linked measurements
- 5. A point where a curve meets the y-axis
- 6. A distribution which has the data values evenly distributed throughout the range of the data
- 9. A way of organizing data from two categorical variables in order to investigate the association between them
- 10. A data value that differs quite a bit from the other values in a data set
- 11. A distribution with two very common data values seen in a dot plot or histogram as distinct peaks
- 12. A distribution whose dot plot or histogram takes the form of a bell with most of the data clustered near the center
