Across
  1. 3. Any attribute that can take different values for different individuals.
  2. 4. Shows each category as a bar. The heights of the bars show (relative) frequencies.
  3. 6. The median of all data values that are to the right of the median (of the entire data set).
  4. 8. Shows the number of individuals having each data value.
  5. 10. An observation that falls more than 1.5*IQR above the third quartile or more than 1.5*IQR below the first quartile.
  6. 13. Takes values that are labels, which place each individual into a particular group, called category.
  7. 14. A visual representation of the five number summary (aka box and whisker plot).
  8. 17. The distance between the first and third quartiles of a distribution.
  9. 18. Shows each data value separated into 2 parts: a stem, which consists of all but the final digit, and a leaf, the final digit. The stems are ordered from least to greatest and arranged in a vertical column. The leaves are arranged in increasing order out from the appropriate stems.
  10. 20. Measures the typical distance of the values in a distribution from the mean.
  11. 21. A person, animal, or thing described in a set of data.
  12. 23. Shows each interval as a bar. The heights of the bars show the (relative) frequencies of values in each interval. *label axies and give graph a title. *bars on histogram touch.
  13. 25. If the right side of the graph is longer than the left side.
  14. 26. Tells what values the variable takes and how often it takes those values.
  15. 27. Divides the ordered data set into 4 groups having roughly the same number of values.
Down
  1. 1. The average of all individual data values. Add all the values and divide by the number of terms (data values).
  2. 2. Shows the proportion or percent of individuals having each data value.
  3. 5. The median of all data values that are to the left of the median (of the entire data set).
  4. 7. If the left side of the graph is longer than the right side.
  5. 8. A distribution of quantitative data that consists of the minimum, first quartile (Q1), median, third quartile (Q3), and maximum.
  6. 9. Shows each category as a slice of the pie.Areas of the slices are proportionate to the category (relative) frequencies.
  7. 11. Shows each data value as a dot above its location on a number line.
  8. 12. Takes number values that are quantities - counts or measurements.
  9. 15. The midpoint of a distribution, the number such that half of the observations are above and half of the observations are below.
  10. 16. The science and art of collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data.
  11. 19. A measure of center that is not influenced by extreme values in a distribution.
  12. 22. If the right side of the graph is approximately a mirror image of the left side.
  13. 24. The distance between the minimum value and the maximum value.
