To create the stem-and-leaf plot, we'll first sort the given data and then break it down into "stems" (tens place) and "leaves" (ones place). Here’s the given data:

36, 21, 46, 29, 23, 22, 27, 26, 13, 17, 11, 23, 13, 21, 35, 21, 12, 26, 18, 19, 28, 32, 46, 46, 34, 37, 21, 28, 18, 23

Sorted Data:

11, 12, 13, 13, 17, 18, 18, 19, 21, 21, 21, 21, 22, 23, 23, 23, 23, 26, 26, 27, 28, 28, 29, 32, 34, 35, 36, 37, 46, 46, 46

Now, we will create the stem-and-leaf plot:

Stem-and-Leaf Plot:

• 1 | 1 2 3 3 7 8 8 9
• 2 | 1 1 1 1 2 3 3 3
• 3 | 2 4 5 6 7
• 4 | 6 6 6

Each row represents a "stem" (the tens digit) and the "leaves" (the ones digits). For example, the first row indicates the number 11, 12, 13, 13, 17, 18, 18, 19.

Missing Values:

The missing values in the stem-and-leaf plot are the ones that should correspond to the number of leaves that have not yet been assigned. Based on the sorted data, it seems the missing values for each stem should be:

• Stem "1": The values 11, 12, 13, 13, 17, 18, 18, 19 (all present)
• Stem "2": The values 21, 21, 21, 21, 22, 23, 23, 23, 23 (all present)
• Stem "3": The values 32, 34, 35, 36, 37 (all present)
• Stem "4": The values 46, 46, 46 (all present)

Thus, all leaves are accounted for in the plot as the sorted data matches the expected format. If there is anything you need clarified or further expanded, feel free to ask!
