Answer: 21 inches TV Screen Topics: • Session 1: Basic Formulas and Data Presentation • Session 2: Table, Charts, Graphs and Coordinate Grids • Session 3: Basic Statistics Session 2: Objectives 1. Interpret and compare data from graphs (including circle, bar, and line graphs), charts, and tables; 2. Identify x- and y-axes, point of origin, quadrants, coordinates, and ordered pairs; and 3. Read, interpret, and plot points in any of the quadrants. Table, Charts, Graphs and Coordinate Grids • The behavior of a variable and the relationship between two variables in a real-world context may be explored by considering data presented in tables and graphs. • The ability to interpret and synthesize data from charts, graphs, and tables is a widely applicable skill in college and in many careers Table, Charts, Graphs and Coordinate Grids • Charts combine pictures and information. Geometric figures and arrows can help you understand how, when, and where events took place. • The coordinate grids has similar elements to the coordinate planes. It consists of a horizontal axis and a vertical axis, number lines that intersect at right angles. Table, Charts, Graphs and Coordinate Grids • The horizontal axis in the coordinate plane is called the x-axis. The vertical axis is called the y-axis. The point at which the two axes intersect is called the origin. The origin is at 0 on the x-axis and 0 on the yaxis. • The intersecting x- and y-axes divide the coordinate plane into four sections. These four sections are called quadrants. Quadrants are named using the Roman numerals I, II, III, and IV beginning with the top right quadrant and moving counter clockwise. Table, Charts, Graphs and Coordinate Grids • Locations on the coordinate plane are described as ordered pairs. An ordered pair tells you the location of a point by relating the point’s location along the x-axis (the first value of the ordered pair) and along the y-axis (the second value of the ordered pair). Table, Charts, Graphs and Coordinate Grids • In an ordered pair, such as (x, y), the first value is called the x-coordinate and the second value is the y-coordinate. Note that the x-coordinate is listed before the y-coordinate. Since the origin has an x-coordinate of 0 and a y-coordinate of 0, its ordered pair is written (0, 0).

In the 18th District, Ms. Black received about four times as many votes as Dr. Green. Answer: The statement is false. Read the lefthand scale carefully to see that Ms. Black received twice as many votes. Note: A graph can appear misleading if the scale doesn’t start at 0. Sample Problem 5 The graph below shows the performance of two stocks, ARL and CTR, over a 5-week period Sample Problem 5 1. On March 26, what was the approximate cost of one share of CTR stock? 2. Which stock has shown the greatest increase in price over the 5-week period? Sample Problem 5 1. On March 26, what was the approximate cost of one share of CTR stock? Answer: About $82 2. Which stock has shown the greatest increase in price over the 5-week period? Answer: CTR stock You are looking for the greatest change in price, not the highest price Sample Problem 5 3. Guido bought 5 shares of ARL stock on March 5. Approximately how much did he pay for the shares? 4. Based on the current trends, which stock will be worth more per share by the end of April? Sample Problem 5 3. Guido bought 5 shares of ARL stock on March 5. Approximately how much did he pay for the shares? Answer: $450 Multiply $90 by 5. 4. Based on the current trends, which stock will be worth more per share by the end of April? Answer: CTR stock The line representing CTR is climbing faster than the line for ARL. The CTR line is likely to cross the ARL line in the very near future. Sample Problem 5 5. By about how much money did the price of a share of CTR stock increase from March 19 to March 26? Sample Problem 5 5. By about how much money did the price of a share of CTR stock increase from March 19 to March 26? Answer: About $20 Topics: • Session 1: Basic Formulas and Data Presentation • Session 2: Table, Charts, Graphs and Coordinate Grids • Session 3: Basic Statistics Session 3: Objectives 1. Compute the mean, median, mode, and range of distributions. 2. Facilitate comparison and facilitate statistical analysis. Basic Statistics • One way we analyze data is to look at measures of central tendency—mean, median, and mode. • They are the tools to look at the information for the purpose of answering the question, “What is normal?” Basic Statistics • Understanding the measures of central tendency can help us make important life decisions. For example, averages can help us set goals or plan budgets. Basic Statistics • Data is bits of information. It is often in numerical terms. • Mean, median, and mode are different ways to describe the typical values of a set of data. Basic Statistics • The “mean, or average”, tells us what number may be used to represent a group of numbers. It is found by adding all the data, then dividing the total by the number of items. • The “median” is the number in the middle of a range of data that has been ordered from least to greatest. Basic Statistics • The “mode” is the piece of data that appears most often, or the number that is repeated the most times in the collection of data. It does not have to be calculated, just identified by observation. • The "range" of a list a numbers is just the difference between the largest and smallest values. Find the mean, median, mode, and range for the following list of values: • 13, 18, 13, 14, 13, 16, 14, 21, 13 • The mean is the usual average, so I'll add and then divide: = (13 + 18 + 13 + 14 + 13 + 16 + 14 + 21 + 13) ÷ 9 = 15 Note that the mean, in this case, isn't a value from the original list. This is a common result. You should not assume that your mean will be one of your original numbers. The median is the middle value, so first I'll have to rewrite the list in numerical order: 13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21 There are nine numbers in the list, so the middle one will be the (9 + 1) ÷ 2 = 10 ÷ 2 = 5th number: 13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21 So the median is 14. The mode is the number that is repeated more often than any other, so 13 is the mode. The largest value in the list is 21, and the smallest is 13, so the range is 21 – 13 = 8 mean: 15 ; median: 14; mode: 13; range: 8 Note: The formula for the place to find the median is "([the number of data points] + 1) ÷ 2", but you don't have to use this formula. You can just count in from both ends of the list until you meet in the middle, if you prefer, especially if your list is short. Either way will work. Find the mean, median, mode, and range for the following list of values: 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 11, 11, 11, 12, 13 The mean is the usual average, so I'll add up and then divide: = (8 + 9 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 11 + 11 + 11 + 12 + 13) ÷ 10 = 105 ÷ 10 = 10.5 The median is the middle value. In a list of ten values, that will be the (10 + 1) ÷ 2 = 5.5-th value; the formula is reminding me, with that "point-five", that I'll need to average the fifth and sixth numbers to find the median. The fifth and sixth numbers are the last 10 and the first 11, so: (10 + 11) ÷ 2 = 21 ÷ 2 = 10.5 The mode is the number repeated most often. This list has two values that are repeated three times; namely, 10 and 11, each repeated three times. The largest value is 13 and the smallest is 8, so the range is =13 – 8 = 5. mean: 10.5; median: 10.5; modes: 10 and 11; range: 5 As you can see, it is possible for two of the averages (the mean and the median, in this case) to have the same value. But this is not usual, and you should not expect it. Exer. Problem 1 The table below shows the data Steve collected while watching birds for one week. How many raptors did Steve see on Monday?

What is the minimum grade he must get on the last test in order to achieve that average? The minimum grade is what we need to find. To find the average of all his grades (the known ones, plus the unknown one), we have to add up all the grades, and then divide by the number of grades. Since we don't have a score for the last test yet, we'll use a variable to stand for this unknown value: "x". Then computation to find the desired average is: Exer.

(87 + 95 + 76 + 88 + x) ÷ 5 = 85 Multiplying through by 5 and simplifying, we get: 87 + 95 + 76 + 88 + x = 425 346 + x = 425 x = 79 Thank you for listening
