  1. Read and Interpret Graphs and Tables WDR: Weekly Data Review

  2. WDR: 1  The correct answer is 7 minutes. Tom went to the grocery store. The graph below shows Tom's distance from home during his trip. How many minutes did Tom spend resting?

  3. Example Solution: Water drains faster through soil with large particles. For example Soil A has 100% larger particles so the water moves faster than it would in soil E, which has 100% smaller particles. Soil A’s water moves at 21 cm/hr and soil E’s water moves at 0.05cm/hr. WDR: 2 Most soils are a mixture of particles of different sizes. Water moves through soil at different rates, depending largely on how much of each size particle makes up the soil. The table below shows the percentage of each size particle in five different soils (A, B, C, D, E) and the rate at which water moves through each of the soils. Describe the relationship between the size of the soil particles and the rate at which water moves through the soil. Use the data in the table to support your answer.

  4. 35 year old: The prediction for the 35 year old is more likely to be accurate because the age 35 is contained within the interval of the data set. The age 55 is outside the interval of the data set, so any prediction for the income of a 55 year old would be an extrapolation. WDR: 3 A random sample of graduates from a particular college program reported their ages and incomes in response to a survey. Each point on the scatterplot above represents the age and income of a different graduate. Based on the data in the scatterplot, predictions can be made about the income of a 35 year old and the income of a 55 year old. For which age is the prediction more likely to be accurate? 35 year old or 55 year old? Justify your answer.

  5. WDR: 4 Grace's class measured the temperature outside four times a day for four days in a row. Their results are shown below. Based on these data, choose two days that were most likely cloudy. Explain why you chose these two days and why you did not choose the other days. Use the data in the graphs and your science knowledge about weather in your answer. Possible Answer: Day 2 and Day 3 indicates understanding between the temperature data and the weather for all four days. On Days 2 and 3, the temperatures were cool and did not change much during the day, or the clouds blocked the Sun's heat; and on Days 1 and 4, the temperatures were warm and increased during the day, or there were no clouds to block the Sun's heat.
