Describe each way you would use the spreadsheets. This Journal assignment can t be posted on the Math 100 page due to a technical problem. This activity develops the idea of frequency distribution and the role of mean and standard deviation in characterizing the distribution. This activity, 6.2, further develops the role of relative frequency in comparing populations or samples, including histograms and pie charts. This activity explores the sensitivity of mean to extreme values and the stability of the median.
Students develop a deeper understanding of what the mean and median say about a distribution.
Read Section 6.4. ClassDataAnalysis and Activity 6.2 if you didn t finish them in class. This activity focuses on reconstructing a distribution from the mean and standard deviation. Cumulative relative frequency is introduced and you will be required to apply the statistical tools they have learned to analyze the four major types of taxation by state and the relationship between annual income and net worth. Also, ClassDataAnalysis and Activity 6.2 if you didn t finish them in class.
