If maybe is an option, the sum of the frequencies is a + b. Mathematical Practices (p. ) 1. Sample answer: U.S. Female Population 11.1 Explorations (p. ) 1. a. The total of the weights of the football players is about 1() + 19() + () + 1() + () + 3() + (3) + (3) + () + 7() + + 9() + 3(3) + 31() + 3() + 33 = 13,7 pounds. The mean of the weights of the football players is about 13,7 3.7, or about pounds. 33 = 9 1 = The weights of the football players vary from the mean of about pounds by up to 9 pounds. The total of the weights of the baseball players is about 1 + 17() + 1() + 19() + (9) + 1() + () + 3(3) + = 9 pounds. The mean of the weights of the football players is about 9 = 7., or about pounds. = 1 = The weights of the baseball players vary from the mean of about pounds by up to pounds. b. The weights of the football players vary from the mean much more than the weights of the baseball players. c. Each football position seems to be clustered around a similar weight. So, there does appear to be a correlation between body weights and the positions of players in professional football. Each baseball position is more spread out. So, there does not appear to be a correlation in professional baseball. Population (millions) Frequency (millions) 3 3 1 3 3 1 1 1 9 3 9 7 7 9 Ages (years) U.S. Population Male Female 1 1 9 3 9 7 7 9 Ages (years). Weights of Players on a Basketball Team 17 19 1 3 7 9 31 33 Weight (pounds) Power forwards Small forwards Centers Point guards Shooting guards It appears as though guards tend to be lighter and forwards tend to be heavier. So, there does appear to be a correlation between the body weights and the positions of players in professional football. 3. In order to describe the variation of a data set, you can describe how the data vary from the mean.. Sample answer: Histograms display frequencies in intervals, and double bar graphs display frequencies for each gender side-by-side. The populations are roughly equal for the first four age groups, but decrease significantly for the last two age groups and the female population is greater than the male population for the last two age groups.

11.1 Monitoring Progress (pp. 9) 1. a. Mean: x = 1. +.7 +. +... +. + 9. +. 9. 9 9. So, the of the mean decreases slightly. Median:.,.,.,.,.,.7, 9., 9., 1.. The middle, or median, is.. So, the of the median decreases slightly. Mode:.,.,.,.,.,.7, 9., 9., 1... There are two modes now,. and., both of which are less than the mean and median. b. The mean is greater than most of the data and the modes are less than most of the data. So, the median best represents the data.. a. The $7, is much greater than the other wages. So, it is the outlier. Mean: with outlier: 3 + 1 + 3 + 7 + + 3 + + 3 x 33 = $.7 thousand, or $,7 without outlier: 3 + 1 + 3 + + 3 + + 3 x 7 $3.71 thousand, or about $3,71 So, the outlier increases the mean by $,7 $3,71 = $11. Median: with outlier: 3, 3, 3, 3, 1,,, 7 3 + 1 = $39. thousand, or $39, without outlier: 3, 3, 3, 3, 1,, $3 thousand, or $3, So, the outlier increases the median by $39, $3, = $1. Mode: with outlier: 3, 3, 3, 3, 1,,, 7 $3 thousand, or $3, without outlier: 3, 3, 3, 3, 1,, $3 thousand, or $3, So, the outlier does not affect the mode. b. Sample answer: The outlier could be the salary of the manager. 3. Show A: 19,,, 1,, 7, 7, 9, 9, 3, 31 So, the new range is still 31 19, or 1 years. Show B: 19,, 1,,,,,, 7, 7, 3 So, the new range is 3 19, or 13 years. For Show A the greatest and least s are the same. So, the range did not change. However, for Show B, the oldest contestant was voted off. So, the range is smaller, meaning the ages of the contestants are less spread out.. x = + + +... + + 1 + 1 31 1 = x x x x (x x ) 1 1 3 1 7 1 1 3 3 19 7 9 7 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 + 3 + 1 +... + 1 + + 1 7 1 7.7 = 7 1.3 The standard deviation is about 7.7 years. This means that the typical age of a contestant on Show B differs from the mean by about 7.7 years.. The standard deviation for Show B is greater. So, the ages are more spread out. 7 Algebra 1 Copyright Big Ideas Learning, LLC

The measure of center represents the center, or typical, of the data. The measure of variation represents the distribution of the data, or how much the data s vary from the center. 3. Sample answer: The data set 3,,, 7, 9, 9 has two modes. The modes are and 9.. An advantage of using the range to describe a data set is that it is easy to calculate. The standard deviation, however, is considered a more reliable measure of variation than the range because all of the s of a data set are used in calculating the standard deviation.

9. The numbers should be put in numerical order before finding the median., 3,,,,, 7,, The middle is. So, the median is. 3. When a number is added to each in a data set, the range stays the same. 13, 1, 7,,, 13 So, the range is 13 ( 13), or. 31. a. Mean: Team A: 17 + 13 + 173 + 1 x 7 = 171.7 Team B: 13 + 1 + 1 + 19 x = 17 Team A has the greater mean score. So, Team A wins. Median Team A: 13, 17, 173, 1 The mean of the two middle s is 17 + 173 3 = 17.. Team B: 13, 1, 1, 19 The mean of the two middle s is 1 + 1 3 = 17. Team B has a greater median score. So, the result would be different if the rule were changed to say the team with the greater median score wins. b. Team A: 13, 17, 173, 1 So, the range is 1 13, or. x = 171.7 x x x x (x x ) 17 171.7.. 13 171.7 1.7 173. 173 171.7 1. 1. 1 171.7. 1.. + 173. + 1. + 1. 33.7 1.17 1.17 9. Team A s scores differ from the mean by about 9 pins. Team B: 13, 1, 1, 19 So, the range is 19 13, or. x = 17 x x x x (x x ) 13 17 3 11 1 17 1 19 1 17 19 17 11 + 19 + + 1 = 1. Team B s scores differ from the mean by about 1. pins. So, Team B is more consistent because their range and standard deviation are less than those of Team A. c. Mean: Team A: x = 171.7 + 1 = 1.7 Team B: x = 17(1 +.1) = 17(1.1) = 191. Team B s new mean score is greater than that of Team A. So, Team B wins. 3. Even though two data sets have the same range, the numbers in between may be distributed differently. So, your friend is incorrect. 33. The data is not numeric. So, the only measure of central tendency that can be used to describe the data is the mode. 3. Dot plot B has the greatest range, 1 1 =. So, the data s are spread out the most on this dot plot, and it will have the greatest standard deviation. Dot plot C has the smallest range, 1 1 =. So, the data s are spread out the least on this dot plot, and it will have the least standard deviation. 3. Mean: x = 7(3) + = 1 + = 9 Median: 3(3) + = 9 + = Mode: 1(3) + = + = Range: 1(3) = 13 Standard deviation: 9(3) = 7 So, the new mean is 9, the new median is, the new mode is, the new range is 13, and the new standard deviation is 7. 3. All the data s could be the same. Then, the standard deviation would be. The standard deviation cannot be negative, because it is a positive square root. 7 Algebra 1 Copyright Big Ideas Learning, LLC

37. a. Answers will vary. b. Sample answer: You would expect the mean, median, range, and standard deviation to increase, but because it is highly unlikely that another student is 7 feet tall, the mode will not be affected. 3.

Because the data on the right of the distribution are approximately a mirror image of the data on the left of the distribution, the distribution is symmetric. So, use the mean to describe the center and the standard deviation to describe the variation. 3. Because most of the data are on the left of the distribution for football players and the tail of the graph extends to the right, the distribution is skewed right. So, the median and five-number summary best represent the distribution for professional football players. Because the data on the right of the distribution are approximately a mirror image of the data on the left, the distribution for company employees is symmetric. So, the mean and standard deviation best represent the distribution for company employees. The median number of years of experience for professional football players is probably in the 3 or interval, and the mean number of years of experience for the company employees is probably in the 9 11 or 1 1 interval. So, a typical company employee is more likely to have more years of experience than a typical professional football player. The data for the company employees are more variable than the data for the professional football players. This means that the number of years of experience tends to differ more from one company employee to the next.. The mean is greater than the median because the distribution is skewed right.. If more women are surveyed, you would expect about. = 3 of the women to own between and 1 pairs of shoes. 71 Algebra 1 Copyright Big Ideas Learning, LLC

So, the distribution is skewed right, which means that the median and five-number summary best represent the data. c. As you include more and more IQ scores in the data set, the shape of the distribution will become more symmetric. 11. When most of the data are on the right, the distribution is skewed left, not right. Most of the data are on the right and the tail of the graph extends to the left. So, the distribution is skewed left. 1. For a symmetric distribution, the mean is closest to the center. So, it is the most appropriate measure to use for describing the center of the data. Also for a symmetric distribution, the variation is approximately the same on each side of the center. So, the standard deviation is the most appropriate measure for describing the variation of the data. For a skewed distribution, the median is closest to the center of the data. So, it is the most appropriate measure to use for describing the center. Also for a skewed distribution, the variation is different on each side. So, the five-number summary gives the most accurate description of the variation. 1. Because most of the data are on the right of the distribution for Town A and the tail of the graph extends to the left, the distribution is skewed left. So, the median and five-number summary best represent the center and distribution for Town A. Because the data on the right of the distribution for Town B are approximately a mirror image of the data on the left of the distribution, the distribution is symmetric. So, the mean and standard deviation best represent the center and distribution for Town B. The median of the Town A data set is in the 7 79 interval, while the mean of the Town B data set is probably in the 9 interval. So, on a typical day, it is likely that the temperature in Town A is higher than the temperature in Town B. The data for Town B is more variable than the data for Town A. This means that the daily high temperature tends to differ more for Town B. 1. Use the standard deviation when the distribution of the data is symmetric, not skewed. Because the distribution is skewed, use the five-number summary to describe the variation of the data. 13. A stem-and-leaf plot requires that you list every data item, but a histogram only displays the frequency of data items in each range. So, a histogram would be more appropriate for a large data set. 71 Algebra 1 Copyright Big Ideas Learning, LLC

Freshmen Frequency Restaurant A Restaurant B 13 1 11 9 7 3 1 13 1 11 9 7 3 1 11 13 1 1 17 19 3 Price range (dollars) Because most of the data are on the left of the distribution for Restaurant A and the tail of the graph extends to the right, the distribution is skewed right. So, the median and five-number summary best represent the center and distribution for Restaurant A. Because most of the data are on the right of the distribution for Restaurant B and the tail of the graph extends to the left, the distribution is skewed left. So, the median and fivenumber summary best represent the center and distribution for Restaurant B. The median of the Restaurant A data set is in the 1 1 interval, while the median of the Restaurant B data set is between the 17 19 and intervals. So, entrée prices from Restaurant B are typically higher. Because most of the prices for Restaurant A seem to be concentrated in the two middle bars, the data for Restaurant B is more spread out than the data for Restaurant A. This means that the entrée prices for Restaurant B tend to vary more. 17. Sample answer: The salaries of employees at a large company tend to have a distribution that is skewed right. 1. Sample answer: The ages of residents and staff at a retirement home tend to have a distribution that is skewed left. Sophomores 1 1 17 3 Number of songs For freshmen, the whiskers are the same size, and the median is in the center of the plot. So, the distribution is symmetric. For sophomores, the whisker and box to the left of the median are larger than the whisker and box to the right of the median. So, most of the data is on the right, and the distribution is skewed left. b. The centers and spreads of the two data sets are quite different from each other. The median for sophomores is nearly twice the median for freshmen, and the mean for sophomores is significantly higher than that for freshmen. So, the number of songs downloaded by freshmen tends to be less than the number of songs downloaded by sophomores. Also, there is more variability in the number songs downloaded by sophomores. c. Assuming the symmetric distribution is bell-shaped, you know about % of the data lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean. Because the mean is 11, and the standard deviation is, the interval from 11 = 73 to 11 + = 17 represents about % of the data. So, you would expect about. 31 of the freshmen surveyed to have between 73 and 17 songs downloaded on their MP3 players. d. Assuming the symmetric distribution is bell-shaped, you know about 9% of the data lie within standard deviation of the mean. Because the mean is 11, and the standard deviation is, the interval from 11 () = 3 to 11 + () = 199 represents about 9% of the data. So, you would expect about.9 = 9 of the freshmen surveyed to have between 3 and 199 songs downloaded on their MP3 players.. a. Freshmen Sophomores 1 1 17 3 Number of songs The mean and median of this data set are less than the mean and median, respectively, of the data set for sophomores. So, the number of songs downloaded by freshmen still tends to be less than the number of songs downloaded by sophomores, but this data set has much more variability than the previous data set for freshmen. b. Because the whisker and box to the left of the median are longer than the median and box to the right of the median, the data are more concentrated on the right side of the plot and the distribution is skewed left. So, the median is greater than the mean for this group of freshmen. 1. The distribution will still be symmetric because the data will all be related proportionally. Because this is a data transformation using multiplication, the measures of center and distribution will each be doubled. Copyright Big Ideas Learning, LLC Algebra 1 717

. a. C; The data on the left are approximately a mirror image of the data on the right. So, the distribution is symmetric. This matches box-and-whisker plot C, which also shows a symmetric distribution, because the whisker and box to the right of the median are approximately the same size as the whisker and box, respectively, to the left of the median. b. A; Most of the data are on the left of the histogram and the tail extends to the right. So, the distribution is skewed right. This matches box-and-whisker plot A, which also shows a distribution that is skewed right, because most of the data are concentrated on the left side of the plot. c. B; Most of the data are on the right of the histogram, and the tail extends to the left. So, the distribution is skewed left. This matches box-and-whisker plot B, which also shows a distribution that is skewed left, because most of the data are concentrated on the right side of the plot. 3. a. Waiting Times Frequency 9 19 9 7 3 39 9 3 Frequency Restaurant Waiting Times 7 3 1 9 19 9 3 39 9 Time (minutes) The data on the right side of the graph are approximately a mirror image of the data on the left side.

So, when the number of intervals is increased, the distribution becomes skewed left. c. More intervals show the spread of the data more accurately. So, the histogram in part (b) best represents the data.. Sample answer: The age at which people receive diplomas or degrees is a bimodal distribution, because peaks in frequency occur both at the typical high school graduation age and again at the typical college graduation age.

In Exercise 1, the outlier is much greater than the rest of the data s, and it increases the mean. When a number is much less, it decreases the total of the data items, and when a data is much greater, it increases the total. Because the mean depends on the sum of the data s, it makes sense that an outlier that is much less will decrease the mean and an outlier that is much greater will increase the mean.. Sample answer: The residents would be much older than the staff, and the residents would significantly outnumber the staff. So, most data s would be on the right. 11.1 11.3 Quiz (p. ) 1 3 1. a.

. a. Mean: 9 + 119 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 9 + + 1 x 97 = 1 Median: 9, 9, 9,, 119, 1, 13, 11 The mean of the two middle numbers is + 119 19 = 9.. Mode: 9, 9, 9,, 119, 1, 13, 11 The data that occurs most often is 9. The range is 11 9 = 11. x x x x (x x ) 9 1 7 119 1 3 9 9 1 7 79 11 1 9 791 13 1 9 1 7 1 1 1 3 9 7 + 9 + 79 + 791 + + 7 + + 9,3 = 19 19 = 3 So, the mean is $1, the median is $9., the mode is $9, the range is $11, and the standard deviation is $3. b. The price of $11 is significantly greater than the other prices. So, it is the outlier. Mean: 9 + 119 + 9 + 13 + 9 + + 1 x 7 7 7 9.9 Median: 9, 9, 9,, 119, 1, 13 The middle number is. Mode: 9, 9, 9,, 119, 1, 13 The data that occurs most often is still 9. So, the outlier increases the mean by about $1 $9.9 = $1.71 and it increases the median by $9. $ = $9., but the outlier does not affect the mode. c. lower half 9, 9, 9,, 119, 1, 13, 11 least first median upper half third Least : 9 9 + 9 First : 19 = 9 + 119 Median: 19 = 9. 1 + 13 Third : = 17. Greatest : 11 1 1 1 1 Price greatest The inter range is 17. 9 = 9.. This means that the middle half of the prices vary by no more than $9.. Because most of the data items are on the left side of the plot and the right whisker is longer than the left whisker, the distribution is skewed right. d. Mean: x = 1(1.) = 1(.9) = 11.9 Median: 9.(.9) =. Mode: 9(1.) = 9(.9) = 93.1 Range: 11(1.) = 11(.9) = 1. Standard deviation: 3(1.) = 3(.9) = 3. 9. a. Time (minutes) Frequency 3 9 11 1 1 3 1 17 1 Frequency 1 Presentation Times 3 9 11 1 1 1 17 Time (minutes) b. Because the data on the right are approximately a mirror image of the data on the left, the distribution is symmetric. So, the mean and standard deviation best represent the data. c. Because most of the data are in the 9 11 range or close to it, most of the presentations are about the right length. Copyright Big Ideas Learning, LLC Algebra 1 71

Sample answer: Next season, for each shirt category, you could order the quantity equal to the difference between the number at the beginning of this season and the number at the end of this season. From the table, you can see that you should order fewer t-shirts that are sizes small and medium, and large especially. You may even want to order a couple more of the t-shirts that were sold out by the end of the season, such as the blue/white, size XL.. a.

Senior.3.7 So, given that a student is a senior, the conditional relative frequency that he or she is planning to major in a medical field is about.3, or 3%. 3. Sample answer: Rows and columns represent different categories, each entry represents the number in both categories. 7 Algebra 1 Copyright Big Ideas Learning, LLC

. Cell Phone Yes 3 Tablet Computer Yes No. 1 191. No 1.3 7 191.3 The conditional relative frequencies for students who have cell phones are about the same whether they have a tablet computer or not. Similarly, the conditional relative frequencies for students who do not have cell phones are about the same whether they have a tablet computer or not. So, there is not an association between owning a tablet computer and owning a cell phone. 11. Exercises (pp. 1 1) Vocabulary and Core Concept Check 1. Each entry in a two-way table is called a joint frequency.. It is appropriate to use a two-way table to organize data when data are collected from one source and belong to two different categories. 3. A marginal relative frequency is the sum of the joint relative frequencies in a row or column. A conditional relative frequency is the ratio of a joint relative frequency to the marginal relative frequency.. In order to find conditional relative frequencies, you can use the marginal relative frequency of each row or of each column. Or, you can find the ratio of a joint relative frequency to the corresponding marginal relative frequency.
