Assignment: Pets ws
Don't mislead yourself: this homework IS hard. Not the numbers, not the bar graphs, but really reading the data that is in them and understanding it. I want you to really stretch yourself to remember what a bar graph represents; you've made hundreds of them, yes?
*Don't forget to think about how the data is tallied. It is different for each of the graphs. If you were taking (or giving) the survey, how would you draw the graph?
*The graphs are DIFFERENT. Make sure you are using the one that gives you the information for the question that is being asked. You only need one of them AND ...
*Some of the questions cannot be answered. If you don't have enough information to answer the question, then you need to explain why and tell me what information you would need to answer it.
*Hint: We practiced a little of this in class today when I showed the class coin box plot graph each of you made over the histogram. Think about how the data is recorded ... don't just look at the highest bar and call it good.
You may complete this assignment in the margins, on the back of the worksheet, or on another sheet of paper. Your preference.
P.S. Ben - there is no copy of this assignment, so you can pick it up at school when you get back.
