1 Algebra I 04/10/18 Aim: How Do We Create Box and Whisker Plots? DO NOW 1) Find the mean, median, and mode of the data below 2) Which measure of central tendency do you believe best represents the data? Explain your answer choice. 92, 86, 92, 40, 84, 90

2 Aim: How Do We Create Box and Whisker Plots? 92, 86, 92, 40, 84, 90 Too small Mean = , 84, 86, 90, 92, 92 Juuuuuuuust right Median = 88 Too big! Mode = 92 Which measure of central tendency best represents the data?

3 Aim: How Do We Create Box and Whisker Plots? Floyd Money Mayweather Why Averages can be deceiving responses sum = 101 Question: If Floyd Mayweather walked into the room with $15,000 in his pocket, how would this change the mean, median, and mode? Floyd Money Mayweather 15,000 Outlier: piece of data that is very far from all the rest of the data

4 Aim: How Do We Create Box and Whisker Plots? Which score would you rather have on a test? 80% or 75% Why? Absolute vs. Relative What if all the scores on the tests were: 78, 80, 85, 88, 90, 95, 95, 95, 100, 100, , 45, 45, 50, 55, 62, 62, 65, 65, 70, 70, 75 *Sometimes the comparison between scores can be just as important or more important than the score itself
