* * * * Section 3.2 ~ Picturing Distributions of Data Introduction to Probability and Statistics Ms. Young Objective Sec. 3.2 In this section, we will look at the most common methods for displaying distributions of data A distribution of data values refers to the way the values are spread out over the chosen categories You will be able to create and interpret: Basic bar graphs Dotplots Pie charts Histograms Stem-and-leaf plots Line charts Time-series diagrams Bar Graphs A bar graph is typically used for qualitative data (categorical) Each bar represents the frequency (or relative frequency of one category) The bars can either be vertical or horizontal Sec. 3.2 Characteristics of Bar Graphs When the data is qualitative, the widths of the bars have no special meaning, so there is no reason for them to be touching and they should be drawn with uniform widths The graph should have a title or caption that explains what is being shown The vertical axis should be labeled and scaled appropriately The tick marks should be evenly spaced and the range of values between each mark should be the same The horizontal axis should be labeled and each category should be indicated (there is no need for tick marks if the data is qualitative) The graph should include a legend if multiple data sets are displayed on a single graph Sec. 3.2 Example 1 Create a vertical bar graph from the essay grade data in section 3.1. Sec. 3.2 Grade Frequency A 4 B 7 C 9 D 3 F 2 Total 25 Dotplots A dotplot is a variation of a bar graph in which each dot represents one data value and the total number of dots represents the frequency Dotplots are convenient when making graphs of raw data, because you can tally the data by making a dot for each value and then you can choose to convert the graph to a bar chart so it looks more formal Sec. 3.2 Pareto Chart A pareto chart is a bar graph with the bars arranged in frequency order (either high to low or low to high) Pareto charts make sense only for data at the
