Warm Up Use the circle graph for Exercises 1–3. 1) Which two types of gifts make up just over half of the donated gifts? 2) Which type of gift represents 1/5 of the total donated gifts? 3) If there were 160 gifts donated, how many were books? CONFIDENTIAL
2 3 Frequency and Histograms A stem-and-leaf plot arranges data by dividing each data value into two parts. This allows you to see each data value. The last digit of a value is called a leaf. The digits other than the last digit of each value are called a stem. The key tells you how to read each value. Key: 2|3 means 23 Stem-and-leaf plots can be used to organize data, like the number of students in elective classes. CONFIDENTIAL
Making a Stem-and-Leaf Plot A) The numbers of students in each of the elective classes at a school are given below. Use the data to make a stem-and-leaf plot. 24, 14, 12, 25, 32, 18, 23, 24, 9, 18, 34, 28, 24, 27. Thetens digits are the stems. Theones digits are the leaves. List the leaves from least to greatest within each row. Title the graph and add a key. Key: 2|3 means 23 CONFIDENTIAL
B) Marty’s and Bill’s scores for ten games of bowling are given below. Use the data to make a back-to-back stem-and-leaf plot.

The greatest value is 82. Step2 Divide the data into equal intervals. For this data set, use an interval of 3. Step3 List the intervals in the first column of the table. Count the number of data values in each interval and list the count in the last column. Give the table a title. CONFIDENTIAL

A histogram is a bar graph used to display the frequency of data divided into equal intervals. The bars must be of equal width and should touch, but not overlap. CONFIDENTIAL
Making a Histogram Use the following frequency table to make a histogram. Step1 Use the scale and interval from the frequency table. CONFIDENTIAL
Step2 Draw a bar for the number of scores in each interval. All bars should be the same width. The bars should touch, but not overlap. Step3 Title the graph and label the horizontal and vertical scales. CONFIDENTIAL

Cumulative frequency shows the frequency of all data values less than or equal to a given value. You could just count the number of values, but if the data set has many values, you might lose track. Recording the data in a cumulative frequency table can help you keep track of the data values as you count. CONFIDENTIAL
Making a Cumulative Frequency Table The heights in inches of the players on a school basketball team are given below. 72, 68, 71, 70, 73, 69, 79, 76, 72, 75, 72, 74, 68, 70, 69, 75, 72, 71, 73, 76 a) Use the data to make a cumulative frequency table. Step1 Choose intervals for the first column of the table. Step2 Record the frequency of values in each interval for t he second column. Step3 Add the frequency of each interval to the frequencies of all the intervals before it. Put that number in the third column of the table. CONFIDENTIAL
Step4 Title the table. CONFIDENTIAL
b) How many players have heights under 74 in? All heights under 74 in. are displayed in the first two rows of the table, so look at the cumulative frequency shown in the second row. There are 14 players with heights under 74 in. CONFIDENTIAL
