To create a histogram using graphing calculator and then describe the distribution of the shape.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Consider the SAT Scores of a class:
Calculation:
Use TI-83 calculator to create a Histogram for the above data set. The procedure is given as below:
Step 1: Press
Step 2: Enter all the values in L1 one by one, the screenshot is given as below:
Step 3: Press
Step 4: Select the plot number by pressing and then select the histogram plot type as show bellow by pressing. The screenshot is given as below:
Step 5: Press
This is the required histogram. From the histogram it’s obvious that the majority of the data are on the left side of the mean hence the data is a Positively Skewed.
To display the five number summary.
Explanation of Solution
The distributions are skewed therefore use five number summaries to understand the behavior of the data. Calculate the five point summary using TI83 calculator. The procedure is given as below:
Step 1: Press
Step 2: Press 1 and
Step 3: Scroll down to view the five point summary. The screenshot is given as below:
Therefore SAT score are range from
