Across
- 2. a data value that falls outside the overall pattern or shape of the distribution
- 4. a distribution where the right side of the graph is approximately a mirror image of the left side
- 6. the most frequently occurring data value.
- 7. Table that shows the number of individuals having each data value
- 8. a pictorial representation of data using bars, columns, or strips
- 9. explanation on the side of a chart that lists what different colors represent
- 10. the extent to which data points in a statistical distribution or data set diverge (vary) from the average value and from each other
- 12. a graph that shows the frequencies or relative frequencies of values in each interval
- 14. a circular statistical graph which is divided into slices to illustrate numerical proportion
- 15. Deviation measures the typical distance of the values in a distribution from the mean.
- 19. type of frequency table that shows the proportion or percent of individual having each data value
- 20. a plot shows each data value separated into two parts: a stem, which consists of all but the final digit, and a leaf, the final digit
- 22. range that is the distance between the first and third quartiles of a distribution
- 23. a plot that shows each data value as a dot above its location on a number line
- 25. the distance between the minimum value and the maximum value.
- 26. the distribution of a variable tells us values that variable takes and how often it takes these values
Down
- 1. they divide the ordered data set into four groups having roughly the same number of values
- 3. measures of how data points differ from the mean
- 5. the middle of a distribution, typically the median but also could be the mean
- 7. quartile that is the median of the data values that are to the left of the median in the ordered list
- 11. a distribution that has two peaks or modes, meaning there are two distinct clusters of data
- 13. a distribution where one side of the graph is much longer than the other side
- 16. quartile that is the median of the data values that are to the right of the median in the ordered list
- 17. if the measure of center is not influenced by extreme values (outliers) in a distribution.
- 18. the midpoint of a distribution, the number such that about half the observations are smaller and about half are larger
- 21. explanation on a stem-plot that explains what the stems and leaves represent
- 24. the average of all the individuals' data values
