Across
- 1. A data value that is collected from a person, an animal, or an object being studied
- 5. A measure of center appropriate for numerical data distributions that are symmetric or approximately symmetric. It is the average of the values in the data set.
- 6. A plot of numerical data values along a number line. Each data value is represented by a dot placed in a column directly above the corresponding number on the number line.
- 7. Summarizes a data distribution. The table includes the data values, which are sometimes grouped into intervals, and the frequencies of those data values.
- 13. A summary of a data set that describes what values are in the data set and how often each data value occurs
- 15. A measure of spread given by the difference between the maximum value and minimum value in a data set
- 16. The fraction of data values that are included in an interval or category.
- 17. Each value in a categorical data set is an individual category from a set of categories.
Down
- 2. Each value in a numerical data set is a number that could represent a quantity or measurement.
- 3. A graphical representation of the five-number summary. This summary consists of the minimum value, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum value.
- 4. A measure of spread given by the difference between the third quartile and the first quartile
- 8. A data value that is much greater or much less than the rest of the data values
- 9. For an ordered numerical data set, quartiles are the three numbers that divide the data set into quarters.
- 10. A graphical representation of a numerical data set that has been grouped into intervals.
- 11. The extent to which data values in a data set differ from each other.
- 12. A question that can be answered by collecting data values that can vary
- 14. The middle number of an ordered set of values
