What is a histogram?

Back

A histogram is a type of bar graph that represents the frequency distribution of numerical data. It shows how many data points fall within certain ranges (bins).

What is a line plot?

Back

A line plot is a graph that displays data along a number line, using 'x' marks to show the frequency of each value.

What does each 'x' represent in a line plot?

Back

Each 'x' in a line plot represents one occurrence of a value in the data set.

How do you create a histogram?

Back

To create a histogram, divide the data into intervals (bins), count how many data points fall into each interval, and then draw bars for each interval with heights corresponding to the counts.

What is the difference between a bar graph and a histogram?

Back

A bar graph displays categorical data with separate bars, while a histogram displays numerical data with bars that touch, representing continuous intervals.

Front

What is the purpose of a line plot?

Back

The purpose of a line plot is to show the frequency of data points in a simple and visual way, making it easy to see trends and patterns.

How do you interpret a histogram?

Back

To interpret a histogram, look at the height of the bars to understand the frequency of data points in each interval and identify the distribution shape.

What is a frequency distribution?

Back

A frequency distribution is a summary of how often each value occurs in a data set, often represented in a table or graph.

Front

What is the mode of a data set?

Back

The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a data set.

How do you find the median of a data set?

Back

To find the median, arrange the data in numerical order and identify the middle value. If there is an even number of values, average the two middle values.
