12 Chapter Review

Connecting BIG Ideas and Answering the Essential Questions

1. Data Collection and Analysis
When you collect data, you should use a sampling technique free of bias. You can use standard measures to describe data sets and make estimates, decisions, or predictions.
Data Analysis (Lessons 12-3 and 12-4)
11 12 14 16 11 10 13 7
Mean: 11.75 Median: 11.5
Mode: 11 Range: 9

Samples and Surveys
(Lesson 12-5)

Data Types: qualitative, quantitative, univariate, bivariate
Sample Types: random, systematic, stratified
 
2. Data Representation
You can use matrices, frequency tables, histograms, box-and-whisker plots, tree diagrams, and other representations to describe different types of data sets.
Data Displays
(Lessons 12-1, 12-2, 12-4, and 12-6)

A box-and-whiskers plot is shown below a number line. Points for the minimum, Q subscript 1 baseline, the median, Q subscript 3 baseline, and the maximum are plotted but no values are assigned.
 
3. Probability
You can find theoretical and experimental probabilities to make decisions or predictions about future events.

Probability of Compound Events (Lesson 12-8)
Independent:
p open eh , and b close equals p open eh close middle dot p open b close
Dependent:
p open eh , then b close equals p open eh close middle dot p open b , after eh close

Choose the correct term to complete each sentence.

  1. Each numerical item of data in a matrix is called a(n) modified macron with question mark above .
  2. The number of data values in an interval is the modified macron with question mark above  of the interval.
  3. A(n) modified macron with question mark above  is a data value much greater or less than the other values in a data set.
  4. The median of the lower half of an ordered data set is the first modified macron with question mark above .
