What is a bar graph?

A bar graph uses rectangular bars to represent data quantities. The length of each bar corresponds to the value it represents.

Fill the blank: A ___ shows the relationship between two variables.

scatter plot

True or false: Pie charts are best for comparing parts of a whole.

True, because pie charts visually represent data as slices of a circle, highlighting proportions.

Difference between mean and median.

Mean is the average of all data points; median is the middle value when data is ordered.

What is a line graph?

A line graph displays data points connected by lines, showing trends over time.

True or false: Histograms and bar graphs are identical.

False, because histograms represent continuous data while bar graphs represent discrete data.

What does the x-axis typically represent?

The x-axis usually represents the independent variable in a graph.

True or false: A data set can have multiple modes.

True, because a data set can have more than one value that appears most frequently.

What is the purpose of a box plot?

A box plot summarizes data distribution based on five key values: minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum.

Fill the blank: In a scatter plot, the ___ variable is usually on the x-axis.

independent

What does the term ‘outlier’ refer to?

An outlier is a data point that differs significantly from other observations in a data set.

What is a frequency table?

A frequency table displays how often each value occurs in a data set.

True or false: Data can be represented in more than one type of graph.

True, because the same data can be visualized differently depending on the purpose.

What does the y-axis typically represent?

The y-axis usually represents the dependent variable in a graph.

What is a dot plot?

A dot plot uses dots to represent data points, useful for small data sets.

Difference between qualitative and quantitative data.

Qualitative data describes characteristics; quantitative data represents numerical values.
