Activity
Each of your group members will draw a color card.Each person will take all the tiles of their color from the bag.
Discussion Questions
·How many tiles does your group have in total?·How can you equally share all the tiles? How many would each member receive? (Ignore the color)·Each member has a different number of tiles according to color. Write out a list of how many tiles each person has from least to greatest. Look at the two middle numbers. What number is in between these two numbers?

Follow-Up Discussion
What is the significance of the number you found when you shared the tiles equally?
This number is called the mean (or average). It tells us that if you evenly distributed the tiles, each person would receive that number.
What is the significance of the number you found that shows two members with more tiles and two with less?
This number is called the median. It is in the middle of the all the numbers. This number shows that no matter what each person received, half the group had more than that number and the other half had less.

Finding the Mean
To find the mean of the ages for the Apollo pilots given below, add their ages. Then divide by 7, the number of pilots.
Mean = 39 + 37 + 36 + 40 + 41 + 36 +37 = 266 = 38 7 7
The mean of the Apollo pilots' ages is 38 years.
Apollo Mission 11 12 13 14 15 16 17

Jae bought gifts that cost $24, $26, $20 and $18. She has one more gift to buy and wants her mean cost to be $24. What should she spend for the last gift?
3 Methods:
Method 1: Guess & Check
Try $30
24 + 26 + 20 + 18 + 30 = 23.6 5
Try a greater price, such as $32
24 + 26 + 20 + 18 + 32 = 24 5
The answer is $32.
![Page 28: Click to go to website: njctl](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813b86550346895da4b181/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Jae bought gifts that cost $24, $26, $20 and $18. She has one more gift to buy and wants her mean cost to be $24. What should she spend for the last gift?
Method 2: Work BackwardIn order to have a mean of $24 on 5 gifts, the sum of all 5 gifts must be $24 5 = $120.The sum of the first four gifts is $88. So the last gift should cost $120 - $88 = $32.
24 5 = 120120 - 24 - 26 - 20 - 18 = 32
![Page 29: Click to go to website: njctl](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813b86550346895da4b181/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Jae bought gifts that cost $24, $26, $20 and $18. She has one more gift to buy and wants her mean cost to be $24. What should she spend for the last gift?
3 Methods:
Method 3: Write an EquationLet x = Jae's cost for the last gift.
24 + 26 + 20 + 18 + x = 24 5
88 + x = 24 588 + x = 120 (multiplied both sides by 5)x = 32 (subtracted 88 from both sides)

Outliers - Numbers that are relatively much larger or much smaller than the data
Which of the following data sets have outlier(s)?
A. 1, 13, 18, 22, 25
B. 17, 52, 63, 74, 79, 83, 120
C. 13, 15, 17, 21, 26, 29, 31
D. 25, 32, 35, 39, 40, 41

When the outlier is not obvious, a general rule of thumb is that the outlier falls more than 1.5 times the interquartile range below Q1 or above Q3.
Consider the set 1, 5, 6, 9, 17.
Q1: 3Q2: 6Q3: 13IQR: 10
1.5 x IQR = 1.5 x 10 = 15
Q1 - 15 = 3 - 15 = -12Q3 + 15 = 13 + 15 = 28
In order to be an outlier, a number should be smaller than -12 or larger than 28.

The mean absolute deviation of a set of data is the average distance between each data value and the mean.
Steps
1. Find the mean.2. Find the distance between each data value and the mean. That is, find the absolute value of the difference between each data value and the mean.3. Find the average of those differences.
*HINT: Use a table to help you organize your data.

Step 3 - Find the average of those differences.
8 + 4 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 = 3.75 8
The mean absolute deviation is 3.75.
The average distance between each data value and the mean is 3.75 minutes.
This means that the number of minutes each friend talks on the phone varies 3.75 minutes from the mean of 56 minutes.

A frequency table shows the number of times each data item appears in an interval.
To create a frequency table, choose a scale that includes all of the numbers in the data set.
Next, determine an interval to separate the scale into equal parts.
The table should have the intervals in the first column, tally in the second and frequency in the third.

Step 1: Find the range of the data then determine a scale and interval.Hint: Divide the range of data by the number of intervals you would like to have and then use the quotient as an approximate interval size.
RANGE: 97 - 39 = 59
SCALE: 59/6 = 9.5555 so 10 would be the size of the intervals

Compare & Contrast Bar Graphs and Histograms.
Both compare data in different categories and use bars to show amounts.
Histograms show data in intervals, the height of the bar shows the frequency in the interval and there are no spaces between the bars.
Bar Graphs show a specific value for a specific category, and have a space between bars to separate the categories.

How to Make a Dot Plot
1. Organize the data. Use a list or frequency table.
2. Draw a number line with an appropriate scale.
3. Count the frequency of the first number and mark the same amount of x's above that number on the line.
4. Repeat step 3 until you complete the data set.

We can also determine a lot about the data that was collected by looking at a data display.

The mean and median are not very close in this problem.
The mode is not the best choice to describe a data set because there can be more than one mode.
The range only tells us what the difference is but does not tell us how well most of the students performed on the test.

The box and whisker plot above shows the number of minutes students spent doing homework last night.
The median is closer to the minimum than the maximum.
This means that 50% of the students that spent under 25 minutes on their homework probably spent a similar amount of time to each other.
On the other hand, the other half that studied more than the median time probably spent very different lengths of time on their homework.
![Page 138: Click to go to website: njctl](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070404/56813b86550346895da4b181/html5/thumbnails/138.jpg)

The difference of the lower quartile and minimum is 5.
This shows us that 25% of the students shared a similar amount of studying time that was less than 20 minutes. The data is concentrated.
The difference of the maximum and upper quartile is 10.
This shows us that those students spent very different amounts of time so the "whisker" is longer even though it represents 25% of the class.
