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 read a line plot?

Back

To read a line plot, look at the number line to see how many X's or dots are above each value, which indicates the frequency of that value.

Front

What does it mean to find the total number of data points in a line plot?

Back

Finding the total number of data points means counting all the X's or dots in the line plot to see how many observations were recorded.

How do you determine how many students scored below a certain percentage using a line plot?

Back

Count the total number of X's or dots that are located to the left of the specified percentage on the line plot.

Front

What is the purpose of using a line plot?

Back

The purpose of using a line plot is to visually display data and make it easier to see patterns, trends, and frequencies.

Front

How can you find the mode from a line plot?

Back

The mode is the value that appears most frequently in the line plot, which is represented by the highest stack of X's or dots.

What does it mean to find how many people visited a park a certain number of times using a line plot?

Back

It means counting the X's or dots that correspond to the specific number of visits on the line plot.

Front

How do you find the number of data points that are greater than a certain value in a line plot?

Back

Count the X's or dots that are located to the right of the specified value on the line plot.

Front

What is the difference between frequency and total in a line plot?

Back

Frequency refers to how many times a specific value appears, while total refers to the overall count of all data points.

Front

How can you use a line plot to compare two sets of data?

Back

You can create two line plots on the same number line to visually compare the frequencies of each data set.
