Lesson Worksheet: Appropriate Data Display Mathematics
In this worksheet, we will practice selecting appropriate diagrams to display data.
Q3:
Students in Hannah's class can speak English, French, Spanish, or a collection of all three. She asks each person to list which of the three languages they speak. She wants to analyze how many people in her class speak one language and how many speak more. Which of the following would be the best choice to display the data that she collects?
- AVenn diagram
- BBar graph
- CLine plot
Q4:
A statistician collected data on the masses of a population of birds. She then produced a box plot and a histogram of the masses.
From which graph can the exact value of the median be identified?
- Athe histogram
- Bthe box plot
From which graph could you calculate the total population of birds?
- Athe histogram
- Bthe box plot
From which graph could you calculate the exact value of the interquartile range?
- Athe histogram
- Bthe box plot
Q5:
Which of the following graphs is used to estimate the median of grouped data?
