The video covers Math 8 Unit 6 Lesson 2 on plotting data. It explains how to represent quantitative and categorical data using various graphs like dot plots, bar graphs, pie charts, histograms, and scatter plots. Activities include measuring arm and hand spans to explore data relationships and creating graphical representations of class data. The lesson concludes with a homework assignment on plotting hockey data using scatter plots.

Which type of graph is best suited for representing categorical data like favorite colors?

• Dot Plot

• Bar Graph

• Histogram

• Scatter Plot

What is a key feature of a histogram?

• It displays data in a circular format.

• It is used for categorical data.

• It shows the distribution of a single attribute.

• It compares two variables.

In the activity, what relationship is being explored between height and hand span?

• Height and foot size

• Height and hand span

• Height and weight

• Height and age

What type of graph would you use to show the relationship between height and hand span?

• Scatter Plot

• Box Plot

• Bar Graph

• Pie Chart

When plotting class height measurements, which graph type is suggested?

• Line Graph

• Histogram

• Pie Chart

• Dot Plot

What is the purpose of using a scatter plot in the homework activity?

• To find a pattern between assists and points

• To show the distribution of a single variable

• To display data in a circular format

• To compare categorical data

Which graph type is not suitable for comparing two variables?

• Table

• Histogram

• Dot Plot

• Scatter Plot

What is a scatter plot best used for?

• Comparing two variables to find a pattern

• Displaying categorical data

• Summarizing data with a central tendency

• Showing the distribution of a single attribute

Why might a table be preferred over a scatter plot?

• For visualizing patterns

• For precise numerical data

• For comparing categorical data

• For showing data distribution

What happens to the volume of a cylinder if its height is doubled?

• The volume triples.

• The volume remains the same.

• The volume doubles.

• The volume is halved.
