Line Plots and Stem-and-Leaf Plots

Front

What is a line plot?

Back

A line plot is a graph that shows the frequency of data along a number line, using X's or dots to represent each data point.

Front

How do you find the mode in a line plot?

Back

The mode is the value that appears most frequently in the line plot.

Front

What is a stem-and-leaf plot?

Back

A stem-and-leaf plot is a method of displaying quantitative data in a graphical format, where each number is split into a 'stem' (the leading digit) and a 'leaf' (the trailing digit).

Front

How do you read a stem-and-leaf plot?

Back

To read a stem-and-leaf plot, look at the stems on the left and the leaves on the right to determine the actual values.

Front

What does the 'stem' represent in a stem-and-leaf plot?

Back

The 'stem' represents the leading digit(s) of the data values.

Front

What does the 'leaf' represent in a stem-and-leaf plot?

Back

The 'leaf' represents the trailing digit of the data values.

Front

How can you determine the total number of data points from a line plot?

Back

Count the total number of X's or dots on the line plot.

Front

What is the purpose of using a line plot?

Back

A line plot helps to visualize the distribution and frequency of data points.

Front

How do you identify the minimum value in a stem-and-leaf plot?

Back

The minimum value is found by looking at the smallest stem and its corresponding leaf.

Front

What is the maximum value in a line plot?

Back

The maximum value is the highest number represented on the line plot.
