Solution
The image provides a data set summarized as a stem-and-leaf plot, along with several questions regarding the data.
Stem-and-Leaf Plot:
- 1 | 1 1 4 4 4 7 9
- 2 | 0 2 3 4 4 4 6 6 7 8 9
- 3 | 0 8
- 4 | 1 7 9
Questions:
- How many data values are in this data set?
- What is the minimum value in the list?
- What is the frequency of the modal class? (Hint: what is the mode?)
- How many of the original values are greater than 29?
Solutions:
-
Total Number of Data Values:
- Count all the numbers in the stem-and-leaf plot.
- → 7 values
- → 11 values
- → 2 values
- → 3 values
- Total: values.
-
Minimum Value:
- The minimum value corresponds to the smallest number in the plot.
- This is in the first row, , which means the minimum value is 11.
-
Frequency of the Modal Class:
- The mode is the number that appears most frequently.
- contains three 24s, which is the most frequent number.
- Frequency of the modal class (24): 3.
-
Number of Original Values Greater Than 29:
- Count the numbers from 30 onwards.
- → 30, 38 (2 values)
- → 41, 47, 49 (3 values)
- Total: values greater than 29.
Final Answers:
- 23
- 11
- 3
- 5
Would you like more details or have any other questions?
Here are five related questions:
- What is the maximum value in the data set?
- Calculate the range of the data set.
- How would you find the median of this data set?
- What is the mean of the data set?
- How would the stem-and-leaf plot change if the data were grouped differently?
Tip: Stem-and-leaf plots are useful for retaining the original data values while also providing a quick way to see the distribution.
