Unit 1 Vocab Review

___________________ are data where the values are categories.

A ___________________ is a distribution with two very common data values seen in a dot plot or histogram as distinct peaks.

A ___________________ is a question which can be answered by a specific measurement or procedure where no variability is anticipated.

A ___________________ is a distribution whose dot plot or histogram takes the form of a bell with most of the data clustered near the center and fewer points farther from the center.

A ___________________ is a distribution where one side of the distribution has more values farther from the bulk of the data than the other side

A ___________________ is a distribution which has the data values evenly distributed throughout the range of the data.

___________________ are data where the values are numbers, measurements, or quantities.

A ___________________ is a quantity that is calculated from sample data, such as mean, median, or MAD (mean absolute deviation)

A ___________________ is a question that can only be answered by using data and where we expect the data to have variability.

For a numerical or categorical data set, the ___________________ tells you how many of each value or each category there are in the data set.

An ___________________ is a data value that is unusual in that it differs quite a bit from the other values in the data set.

___________________ is a measure of the variability, or spread, of a distribution, calculated by a method similar to the method for calculating the MAD (mean absolute deviation).

The ___________________ of a data set consists of the minimum, the three quartiles, and the maximum.

A ___________________ is a distribution with a vertical line of symmetry in the center of the graphical representation.
