Homework for Monday, Oct. 7

Assignment: 11.2 Practice worksheet
This worksheet will help you assess your understanding of 5-number summaries and box-plots.  Answer the questions to the best of your ability, but don't be afraid to ask someone either.  Start thinking about asking people other than me (aka Mo) because I don't want to "give" you the answer, I want you to find it.
FYI, there is more than one acceptable answer to the first question, but not the others. ;-)
*Be sure to identify your 5-number summary for each question, either within the box-plot or on the side.
*I need to be able to tell the numbers you used in your graph.  Make it clear.  You can draw it on the worksheet, or use notebook or graph paper; your choice!
*Each of your box plots should have a different scale.  Remember to create a scale that is accurate and consistent for your box plots that makes sense with each set of data.  We went over this in class today, so think hard.
Need help thinking about box plots?  Try THIS LINK for creating your 5-number summaries or THIS LINK for drawing them and creating a scale.
Due Tuesday
