CCSS.6.SP.B.4

CCSS.HSS.ID.A.1

The visual appearance of the distribution. Described by:

• single vs. multiple modes

• symmetry vs. skewness

• Shape

• Outliers

• Median

• Multimodal

Distributions with two modes.

• Multimodal

• Bimodal

• Trimodal

• Quadmodal

The lower quartile (Q1) is the value with a quarter of the data below it. The upper quartile

(Q3) has a quarter of the data above it. The median and quartiles divide the data into four

equal parts.

• Interquartile Range

• Median

• Relative Frequency

• Quartile

CCSS.6.SP.B.5C

Uses adjacent bars to show the distribution of values in a quantitative

variable. Each bar represents the frequency (relative frequency) of values falling in an

interval of values.

• Histogram

• Boxplot

• Quantitative Data

CCSS.6.SP.B.4

CCSS.HSS.ID.A.1

Extreme values that don't appear to belong with the rest of the data. They may be unusual

values that deserve further investigation or just mistakes; there's no obvious way to tell.

• Mode

• Range

• Spread

• Outliers

The difference between the lower and upper quartiles.

IQR=Q3−Q1.

• Interquartile Range (IQR)

• Quartile

• Variance

• Mode

• Time-series plot

• Multimodal

• Symmetric

• Bimodal

A measure of center

• Median

• Quartile

• Range
