How good was the 2012 U.S. women’s soccer team? With players like Abby Wambach, Megan Rapinoe, and Carli Lloyd, the team put on an impressive showing en route to winning the gold medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. The dotplot shows the difference in the number of goals scored in each game (U.S. women’s team – Opponent).

Explain what the dot above -1 represents.

• One of the U.S. women's 2012 soccer games in which the U.S. team scored 1 fewer goal than the other team.

• One of the U.S. women's 2012 soccer games in which the U.S. team scored 1 more goal than the other team.

• One of the U.S. women's 2012 soccer games in which the U.S. team lost 1 fewer game than the other team.

• One of the U.S. women's 2012 soccer games in which the U.S. team won 1 more game than the other team.

The dotplot shows the results of rolling a pair of 6-sided dice and finding the sum of the up faces 100 times. Determine if the dotplot is roughly symmetric or skewed.

• Roughly symmetric

• Left-skewed

• Right-skewed

• None of the above
